Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Finely chop the garlic, parsley, and dill.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, garlic, parsley, dill, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Cut a pocket into each chicken breast by slicing horizontally but not all the way through.
Fill each chicken breast pocket with an equal amount of the yogurt mixture.
Secure the opening with a toothpick to keep the filling inside.
Place the flour in a shallow dish; beat the egg whites in another shallow dish. Place the breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.
Coat each stuffed chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip in egg whites and coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Lightly spray the chicken with olive oil spray to ensure even browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the outer layer is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
