A delightful chicken bake inspired by Scottish flavors, perfect for a cozy dinner.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning.
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after seasoning to absorb the flavors.
In a frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat and sear the chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure proper searing.
Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish and top each with a slice of ham.
Arrange the chicken evenly in the dish for uniform cooking.
In the same pan, sauté the chopped onion until softened, then spread it over the ham.
Use the same pan to retain the flavors from the chicken.
Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly over the chicken and ham.
Grate the cheese fresh for the best melting quality.
Mix the tomato purée and cream in the pan, heat gently, and pour over the chicken.
Stir continuously to prevent the sauce from separating.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Check halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Serve hot with a side of brown rice or your favorite vegetables.
Garnish with fresh herbs for added color and flavor.
