Delicious Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken Recipe

Savory spinach artichoke stuffed chicken offers a delightful blend of creamy filling and juicy chicken, perfect for impressing guests at any gathering.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped
  • 1 can 14 oz artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, drained artichoke hearts, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
  • Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  • Carefully slice a pocket in each chicken breast, ensuring not to cut all the way through.
  • Stuff each chicken breast with the spinach-artichoke mixture, packing it in tightly, and secure with toothpicks if necessary.
  • Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each stuffed chicken breast for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then remove toothpicks if used, and slice the chicken to serve.
