- 1 1/2 cup of rice ( cook as normal )

- 1/2 onion ( diced )

- 200 - 250 ml milk

How to make :

=  Made the butter stuffing by leaving the butter in room temperature then when its soften mix with finely chopped / diced garlic ( use food processor if you like it to be more like a paste look in the butter ). 

After you mix the butter and garlic well then put the 2 Tablespoon blue cheese in it, then season with pepper and just a little bit of salt as blue cheese already has salty taste. 

= Pulse the bread in food processor to have a little bit fine grain result, make sure it is not going too soft like flour or too rough to have a nice finishing batter to cover the chicken with.

= Prepare the batter mix. You  need 2 flat dish. 1 for seasoned flour then another 1 for the breadcrumbs which you already make in the food processor or supermarket made. Then you also need a bowl for the whisks eggs.

= when all that ready make sure the chicken is clean and dry, cut the middle part of the chicken breast, enough for you to stuff with the butter stuffing, put aside then do the rest of the chicken.

= Chopped broccoli then put it in the pot with water enough to cover the amount of broccoli in it. Only boil it when you start cooking the chicken, so by then it will be ready to serve together with the others. 

= Heat the griddle pan or skillet or normal pan  then put in olive oil when the pan looks hot ( you can see by the smoke appearing from the side of the pan ). Dip the stuffed chicken breast onto seasoned flour then dip onto egg then dip onto breadcrumbs. repeat until chicken breast is well covered Then put in the hot frying pan. Do the same with the other chicken breast. 

Cook for about 4 minutes each side or until the inside part is no longer pink. Make sure you do not burn the breadcrumbs

= While chicken is cooking you make the wild rice. Heat up another pan, put olive oil when its hot fry the bacon and onion fry for  2 minutes or until onion caramelised then season, put the herb then rice stir fry for about 2 - 3 minutes.

Serve the rice and chicken with broccoli then make the sauce using the oil from the chicken. Sift the oil onto a small pot then add little butter and put 2 Tbspn flour and milk pour onto the side of the plate or on top of chicken if you like and serve.
