Equipment

  • 1 Baking dish 9x13 inches
  • 1 Skillet medium
  • 1 meat thermometer

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F. Prepare a baking dish by lightly greasing it with olive oil.
  • Slice each chicken breast horizontally to create a pocket without cutting all the way through. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

Make the Filling

  • In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, then add spinach and cook until wilted.
  • Remove the skillet from heat and mix the cooked spinach with crumbled feta cheese. Stir to combine well.

Stuff and Bake

  • Carefully stuff each chicken breast with the spinach and feta mixture. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
  • Place the stuffed chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and golden.

Serve

  • Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove toothpicks and slice each breast to reveal the filling.

Storage

  • Place any leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
