Mr. BBQ Ultimate Burger Basket & Easy Lasagna Stuffed Chicken ...

That?s right. I said easy lasagna-stuffed chicken! Bam.

And thanks to an amazing burger basket by Mr. BBQ I used my way (I?m such a rebel), I made mine with no fuss and no muss?right on the grill! (Of course, you don?t need a grill to make this delicious recipe. Keep reading for more.)

Tip: You can replace a boneless skinless chicken breast for the chicken.

The?Mr. BBQ Ultimate Burger Basket?is the most amazing, quality burger basket I?ve ever used (and I?ve used a few. I?ve been around that block).

Pressing meat perfectly in place (see images below), the basket secures easily to ensure even pressure across four patties, chicken breasts, or anything else you might want to press flat during grilling.

You could even grill vegetables, fish or hamburgers in here and know they?ll still be there when you come back (I sob when I lose food between the grill grates).

I also love that the solid-quality wooden handle stays cool to the touch for safe grilling.

I was so jazzed about this product, I had to try stuffing some chicken, which begged the question, Would it hold the fillings in the chicken without those wretched toothpicks? The answer is yes!

Below is a close up of how nicely the chicken is held in place. I didn?t have the mess or have to deal with broken toothpicks because this basket holds everything perfectly.

This burger basket keeps chicken snug and juicy.

For this delicious casserole-in-a-chicken breast, I decided to use the pizza sauce only as an afterthought in this dish since tomato/acids have never really served me well in the chicken cooking process.?I find that creamy, decadent dairy-based beauties like ricotta and mozzarella net the best fillings. ?And what?s more, mixing all the fillings in a bowl makes it easy to prepare.

Tip: Brining chicken before cooking helps keep moisture inside.

This recipe is easy to make ahead and reheated for quick lunches or dinners, and for only 334 calories and 2.7 net carbs, you can indulge a?little?knowing that this filling, cheesy dish will please even the pickier palates around the dinner table.

Tip: You can use frozen spinach in place of fresh if you decrease the amount by about half and drain thoroughly.

And, by the way, even though I had to try out this basket for chicken, I guess you could use Mr. BBQ?s Deluxe Burger Basket for making hamburgers, too. I guess.
