Chicken and potatoes, a classic food pairing, right? Pretty much wrong, this time. Because we invite you to stuff the chicken breast with a special mixture made mainly from walnuts, cottage cheese, and brie. Then glaze the chicken with apricot jam mixed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Still classic?
