Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tbsp. Olive Oil
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
½ tsp Red Pepper Flakes (or to your taste)
¼ tsp Garlic Powder
¼ tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp. Salt (divided)
4 Skinless Boneless Chicken Breasts
4 ounces Ricotta Cheese
4 ounces Grated Mozzarella
¼ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1½ cups Chopped Fresh Spinach (steamed just until wilted, squeezed dry with paper towels and chopped)
1 Garlic Clove (minced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease 9×13 baking dish with some oil.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, onion powder and 1/2 tsp. of salt, mix well and set aside.
  • Place a chicken breast on a cutting board and carefully insert the tip of a sharp knife into the thickest part of the chicken breast. Cut an opening about 4 inches wide to create a pocket without cutting all the way through.
  • Pour the prepared rub all over the chicken and using your clean hands generously rub on all sides and inside of the pocket. Refrigerate and let marinate until ready to use.
  • While the chicken is marinating, prepare the cheese filling.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, spinach, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then mix until well combined.
  • Remove the chicken breast from the refrigerator and stuff each breast with the cheese mixture. Secure the pockets with a toothpick, if needed.
  • Place the stuffed breast into the prepared dish and bake for 25 minutes until chicken is nicely golden brown, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning. Alternatively, you can cook it on the stovetop.
  • Remove the toothpicks and serve warm. Enjoy!

SPINACH AND CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST #RSC



Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast #RSC image

Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. I love creating my own recipes and menus for people. I have been doing this since I was about 12 years old. I put together a birthday party with lots of freshly prepared food and cake that I prepared for my mom. I had help from my cousins and friends who were my assistants and servers. The party was a great success and I have been doing this ever since. I made this chicken dish 8 years ago and it was the only thing different my mom would eat so I made sure I perfected the dish just for her and of course others. I usually brine my chicken in a mixture of salt, brown sugar and water for at least 45 minutes

SPINACH & FETA CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST #RSC



Spinach & Feta Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast #RSC image

Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. This is an easy chicken dish that I came up with for my wife who asked me to make something different for dinner. The only meat she really eats is chicken and has recently found a love for feta cheese. She always dips her chicken in ranch dressing. Although there is no actual dressing it has that ranch taste from the Hidden Valley original Ranch seasoning mix. So, this was a little concoction I came up with and she LOVED it!
