Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine the chopped spinach, feta cheese, and minced garlic.
  3. Carefully cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast.
  4. Stuff the spinach and feta mixture into the chicken pockets.
  5. Secure the opening with toothpicks if needed.
  6. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  7. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  8. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  10. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the stuffing for a little heat.
  • If you don’t have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish before putting it in the oven.
