Spinach Gorgonzola Stuffed Chicken Breasts, Ken said when I came up with this recipe I was having one of my gourmet moments. LOL. It is really simple to make and beautiful to serve with a fresh and easy mushroom sauce with just a kiss of pecan smoke. We have new neighbors,and they were happy to be our “crash test dummies”. Low in carbs and high in flavor made a winning combination!

Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green Mountain Wood Pellet Grill/Smoker but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme.  Wood Pellet Patio Heater, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or strawberry margaritas using frozen strawberries for ice, good food, music and sometimes a dance or two…

Cooking on the Pizza Oven is a snap. If you are going to use the smoke box fill it up first with either wood chips or pellets.

Close the door and preheat the oven to your desired temp. You may have to adjust it up or down until you reach your temperature but once you hit it the oven will hold it.

Tonight we will be cooking at 350* (174c) for 40 minutes. Just set your oven safe baking pan or skillet on the shelf.
Around 40 minutes check the internal temperature.

When the chicken reaches an internal temp of 165* (74c) pull it off, cover it and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. We use a Maverick ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temperatures.

About our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Green Mountain, Uuni Wood Fired Pizza Oven, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What You Love,
Ken & Patti
