Spoon the spinach-cream cheese mixture into each chicken breast pocket.
Use toothpicks to secure the edges of the chicken so the filling doesn’t fall out during cooking.
Cook the Chicken:
Heat the olive oil or butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Add the stuffed chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/75°C).
Serve: Remove toothpicks before serving. Pair the stuffed chicken with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, steamed veggies, or a fresh salad.
Tips:
You can customize the filling by adding different cheeses (like feta or goat cheese), mushrooms, or bacon bits for extra flavor.
Serve with a drizzle of balsamic glaze or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for added brightness.
Enjoy your delicious stuffed chicken! 😊
