Spinach and Mushroom Stuffed Chicken Breast
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Slice a pocket into each chicken breast by making a horizontal cut about 3/4 of the way through the breast.
-
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant.
-
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they have softened and released their moisture. Remove from heat.
-
Stuff each chicken breast with a handful of fresh spinach, sautéed mushrooms, and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese. Use toothpicks to secure if needed.
-
Season the stuffed chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
-
Heat a separate oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the stuffed chicken breasts and sear on each side for about 2-3 minutes, until browned.
-
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
-
Remove the toothpicks before serving. Pair with your favorite side dish or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
