Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat, then add 2 minced garlic cloves and 2 cups fresh spinach; sauté for 2-3 minutes until spinach wilts and garlic is fragrant; remove from heat and let cool.
  2. Step 2: In a bowl, combine the cooled spinach mixture with 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese and 1/4 cup cream cheese, blending until creamy and evenly mixed.
  3. Step 3: Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each of the 4 chicken breasts without cutting through to the other side; season each breast with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  4. Step 4: Stuff each chicken breast pocket evenly with the spinach and cheese mixture, securing with toothpicks if necessary.
  5. Step 5: Place stuffed chicken breasts on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
