In a mixing bowl, combine mozzarella cheese, chopped spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and minced garlic. Mix well.
Make the chicken breasts:
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket out of each chicken breast. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
Fill each pocket with the prepared filling, using toothpicks to secure the edges if necessary.
Season the chicken:
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
Sear the chicken:
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts and sear on each side until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Cook the chicken:
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet around the chicken breasts.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve:
Remove the toothpicks from the chicken breasts.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve hot with your choice of sides.
Tips:
Ensure even cooking: To ensure even cooking of the chicken breasts, try to select breasts that are similar in size and thickness.
Add extra flavor: For extra flavor, you can marinate the chicken breasts in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and herbs for a few hours before stuffing and cooking.
Suggested Sides: This dish pairs well with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad.
Enjoy your delicious stuffed chicken breast, full of cheesy and savory flavors!
