Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.5 lbs)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (chopped)
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and prepare a baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped spinach, ricotta, mozzarella, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until well blended.
  3. Slice pockets into each chicken breast carefully. Generously stuff each pocket with the cheesy spinach mixture.
  4. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear stuffed chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Place the seared chicken in the prepared baking dish, pour chicken broth around them without drowning them, cover with foil, and bake for 25-30 minutes until fully cooked.
  6. Let rest for five minutes before slicing open to reveal the cheesy filling. Drizzle with remaining broth before serving.
