Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups Fresh spinach, chopped
- 4 ounces Goat cheese, softened
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice a pocket into the side of each chicken breast without cutting all the way through. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, mix chopped spinach, softened goat cheese, minced garlic, and parsley until well combined.
Stuff each chicken breast pocket with the spinach and goat cheese mixture. Use toothpicks to secure the opening if needed.
Season the outer surfaces of the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Add chicken broth to the skillet, then transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Remove toothpicks if used.
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes and enjoy!
