Steps

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, mix pumpkin puree, ricotta cheese, minced garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until well combined. Cut a pocket into the chicken breast and stuff it with the pumpkin mixture. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the stuffed chicken breast for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked through. Serve the stuffed chicken on a plate, drizzled with any remaining pumpkin puree and garnished with fresh parsley.
