Thrilled to dive into the final week of #GlobalApron! It’s been such a fun journey, and I’m already looking forward to another challenge to keep me active in the kitchen throughout 2025.

This week, I got creative with chicken and kale, whipping up this Kale and Walnut Stuffed Chicken! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, in both making and devouring.

    Move chicken into the oven and bake for 5 minutes or until cooked through

  6. 6

    Serve and enjoy 😋

  7. 7

    Meanwhile, heat a tablespoon of oil in an oven safe skillet on medium heat and sautee the onion until soft. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, followed by the kale, cooking it until wilted (about 5-7 minutes). Stir in the toasted walnuts if using

  8. 8

    When the kale is done cooking, spread it on one side of the chicken breast and fold over. Secure the chicken breast with a toothpick
