Recipe Review: Feta and Bacon Stuffed Chicken with Onion Mashed Potatoes

Saturday night was date for myself and my husband. It was my turn to plan the evening and I really didn't feel like going out- mostly because I couldn't figure out what I felt like having, so instead we decided to cook something together (okay I cooked and he supervised, but it was till fun- we had a few mishaps along the way, but that's what makes it a memorable night!). Anyways, since I was cooking dinner for my husband I decided to do something I knew he would love- chicken stuffed with feta and bacon..,

I found the recipe for Feta and Bacon Stuffed Chicken with Onion Mashed Potatoes on allrecipes.com (my go-to place for recipes!). I read the list of ingredients and the directions and thought it sounded really good. The recipe can be found here: Feta and Bacon Stuffed Chicken with Onion Mashed Potatoes

My husband really loved the chicken. It was moist and really delicious. We both agreed that it needed more stuffing, but beyond that the ingredients together were fantastic. All of the flavours are quite subdued, so this recipe would be good for picky eaters (you could probably add in some veggies and your kids would never know ;) ;). I found it hard to stuff the chicken as I kept ripping through it, but I think that talent just comes with practice.

The potatoes were really delicious also. We are very much garlic people and so we added 2 cloves of garlic to the potatoes while they were cooking and then mashed them up while mashing the potatoes. The potatoes turned out nice and creamy and really tasty. I thought the onions in them added to the taste and elevated them to a new "mashed potato" level.

The quote on the recipe states "This rich, delicious dish is sure to impress company!" and I'm sure it would. It was pretty easy and could easily be served to company.

Overall I would give this recipe:

4.5 out of 5 forks. 

It was delicious and only needed a few minor (personal) tweaks. If you follow this recipe exactly as written it would yield a delicious dish!
