Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
  • 1 red bell pepper, roasted and diced
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Toothpicks or kitchen twine (to secure the chicken)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. Season both sides of chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian herbs.
  3. In a bowl, mix roasted red pepper, spinach, mozzarella, and Parmesan.
  4. Spoon the filling onto one side of each chicken breast, then fold or roll and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
  5. Place stuffed chicken in the baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 25–30 minutes until cooked through and golden.
  6. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Add red pepper flakes for heat in the filling.
  • Substitute feta or goat cheese for a tangy twist.
  • Use kale or arugula instead of spinach.
  • Try grilling the chicken wrapped in foil for a smoky flavor.
