We made this recipe not too heavy by baking cockerels instead of a whole chicken, so everyone can have every parts of the bird! No more jealousy anymore! Of course, you can use a chicken if you cannot find cockerels easily. Perfect for an outdoor dinner, enjoy these cockerels with a fresh glass of rosé wine.
Ingredient list for the stuffed cockerels
- 4 cockerels
- 2 fresh goat cheeses
- 2 bunches of spring onions
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 5 cloves of garlic
