Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While it heats up, take each chicken breast and gently pound them with a meat mallet until they&x27;re about half an inch thick—this helps them cook evenly and be easy to stuff.

In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and let it warm up. Toss in diced pears and sprinkle with brown sugar and fresh thyme. Sauté until the pears soften and caramelize slightly—about 5 minutes—releasing their sweet aroma.

On each chicken breast, place a generous spoonful of the caramelized pear mixture followed by slices of brie cheese. Carefully fold the chicken over and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.

Heat more olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add stuffed chicken breasts seam side down. Sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.

Transfer your seared chicken into an oven-safe dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through (165°F/75°C internal temperature).

Once done baking, let your stuffed chicken rest for about 5 minutes before slicing into it—this allows juices to redistribute. Serve with extra sautéed pears on top if you’re feeling fancy!
