Chicken stuffed with pimento cheese is more than a mere entrée—it’s a nostalgic embrace. This dish evokes easy Southern afternoons, porch swings, and the comforting chatter of loved ones. Surprisingly, though, in light of how popular and distinctly Southern this dish is now, it was not common in the South until after World War II. As you slice into this succulent chicken, molten pimento cheese oozes out—scoop up every bite.
