- Using a thin, sharp knife, preferably a boning knife, make a pocket in each chicken breast. Starting at the thick end, make a 3 cm horizontal incision in the chicken breast and continue slicing as deep as possible to create a pocket, being careful not to pierce through to the outside. Repeat with the other breast.
- Stuff the pocket in each chicken breast with the cheese filling, then use a couple of toothpicks to secure the opening.
- Coat the chicken breasts with olive oil and the chicken seasoning.
- Once the barbecue has preheated, brush the cooking grills clean with a wire brush. Place the chicken on the barbecue, skin side up. Roast the chicken, with the lid closed, for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature has reached 71°C. The temperature will continue to rise by 3°C to 6°C while the chicken is resting (the final doneness temperature for chicken is 74°C).
- Once the barbecue has preheated, adjust it to the settings for indirect medium-high heat. Place the chicken on the trivet, skin side up. Roast the chicken, with the lid closed, for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature has reached 71°C. The temperature will continue to rise by 3°C to 6°C while the chicken is resting (the final doneness temperature for chicken is 74°C).
- Once the barbecue has preheated, brush the cooking grills clean with a wire brush. Place the chicken in the centre of the cooking grill, between the two charcoal baskets, skin side up. Roast the chicken over indirect medium-high heat, with the lid closed, for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature has reached 71°C. The temperature will continue to rise by 3°C to 6°C while the chicken is resting (the final doneness temperature for chicken is 74°C).

The temperature will continue to rise by 3°C to 6°C while the chicken is resting (the final doneness temperature for chicken is 74°C).
