We often coat our fowl friends with cheesy and crispy toppings, but stuffing is just as good as topping. Here, we stuff a chicken with deliciously tart goat cheese, flavored with herbs, cream cheese, and dill. It fills every bite with flavor, every sense with stuffing, every touch with taste. Topping is tops, but stuffing is supreme.
