Method

Combine 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, cornbread, fruit, jelly, and cheese. Pour into a gallon size zip-top bag with a very small hole snipped in one of the bottom corners.

Using a narrow boning knife, make a slit in one of the chicken breast's side, but not all the way through. Repeat until all chicken has been cut.

Fill the slits 2/3 of the way full with the cornbread mixture. Brush the edges with honey and press together to seal. Tie closed with kitchen twine.

Place the chicken in a large roasting pan. Brush with olive oil and season each piece liberally with remaining salt and pepper.

Insert a probe thermometer in one of the pieces, but not touching stuffing. Place pan in the center of a 400 degree F oven and cook until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Let rest 7 minutes before removing thermometer and untying. Serve warm.
