Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Combine goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes in a small bowl; set aside. Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a second small bowl and set aside.
- Place chicken thighs on a cutting board and layer a piece of plastic wrap on top. Pound thighs slightly with a meat mallet to flatten. Divide goat cheese mixture among all of the flattened chicken thighs; spread evenly down the middle. Starting at the short end, roll up the chicken thighs and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
- Dredge chicken rolls in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour, and set on a plate. Repeat until all of the rolls have been coated with flour.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place chicken thigh rolls in pan and cook until all sides are browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer rolls to an oven-safe dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Meanwhile, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet over medium heat. Once butter starts to bubble and turn brown, add chopped sage and swirl the pan until sage becomes fragrant. Pour in broth, wine, and lemon juice. Bring sauce to a simmer and reduce heat to low.
- Transfer chicken rolls back to the skillet and cook in the sauce for about 2 minutes, turning frequently to coat. Plate rolls and spoon sauce over top.

GOAT CHEESE AND SPINACH STUFFED CHICKEN
This spinach-stuffed chicken breast recipe is special to me because it has so much flavor, yet not too many calories. I love Italian food, but most of the time it is too heavy. This is a healthy twist on an Italian dish! -Nicole Stevens, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

- In a large skillet, add the avocado oil or the olive oil and heat over medium heat. While the oil is heating, pat the chicken thighs with paper towel to remove any excess liquid. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken thighs to the pan and allow them to get crispy and golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Once brown, flip the chicken thighs over and brown on the other side.
- Once all the chicken is brown, move the chicken to one side of the pan and add the minced garlic, chopped sundried tomatoes and dijon mustard. Stir the garlic, tomatoes and mustard around in the pan for about 1 minute or until the garlic is very lightly golden brown.
- Once the garlic is done cooking, add the chicken broth or stock, the red pepper flakes and salt. Spread the chicken back out on the pan. Cover and cook on low for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken thighs are falling part.
- In a small dish, combine the tapioca starch and the water and mix. While the sauce is slowly simmering, add the tapioca and water mixture and stir. The sauce will start to thicken. Make sure to stir well throughout the entire chicken dish.

- Let the chicken sit at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before cooking so it takes the chicken comes to even internal temperature for even cooking.
- In a medium size bowl, mix the goat cheese and the cream cheese together until smooth. Stir the spinach, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper into the cheese mixture until combined.
- Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Carefully loosen the skin from the thigh meat with your fingers, gingerly making a pocket so the skin is still connected at the edges to the meat. Gently place a spoonful of the goat cheese mixture in the pocket between the skin and the chicken, keeping it in a small mound of cheese. Pull the skin so it covers the chicken and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
