If you’re not the biggest fan of turkey for the holidays but still crave that comforting, festive flavour, this one’s for you. Faster than cooking the whole bird, stuffed chicken can bring both your poultry and stuffing game up a notch. It’s also a great way to breathe a new life into leftovers after the big feast.
