Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups fresh spinach chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Toothpicks or kitchen twine for securing

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  3. Add mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat and mix in cream cheese, parmesan, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  4. Cut a pocket into each chicken breast. Stuff with the mushroom-spinach mixture and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
  5. Heat olive oil in a skillet and sear chicken on both sides until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  6. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) internally.
  7. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the chicken is fully cooked before serving. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
