Muffi's Chicken Breasts stuffed with Figs and Goat Cheese
I invented this one year after buying a case of figs and wanted to find a new way to use them. We grow garlic in our garden and I love to use the scapes as they are so delicious and pretty! This is an elegant dish to serve company but easy enough to make any night of the week.
