5Mediterranean Stuffed Chicken Breast
Enjoy tender chicken breasts stuffed with a savory blend of spinach and feta, brightened by sun-dried tomatoes.
How to make it
- 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 2
Carefully slice each chicken breast horizontally, almost all the way through, to create a pocket for stuffing. Be gentle.
- 3
In a small bowl, mix together the fresh spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. You can tear the spinach a bit if the leaves are very large.
- 4
Divide the mixture evenly and stuff it into the pockets of the chicken breasts. Secure the openings with toothpicks if needed, but often just folding them works fine.
- 5
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown. This helps lock in flavor.
- 6
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your chicken. Rest for a few minutes before serving.
