Ingredients

  • 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (approx 800g total)
  • 5 oz fresh baby spinach, chopped
  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, and minced garlic. Mix well.
  3. Cut a horizontal slit into the side of each chicken breast to form a pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  4. Stuff each chicken breast evenly with the spinach and cheese mixture.
  5. Season the outside of the stuffed chicken breasts with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
  6. Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  8. Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve.
