Elevate your chicken dinner with this exquisite recipe featuring juicy chicken breasts generously filled with a vibrant mixture of sautéed spinach and tangy feta cheese. With hints of garlic and oregano, each bite is a burst of Mediterranean-inspired delight.
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with olive oil.
- Make a horizontal cut in each chicken breast to create a pocket for stuffing.
- In a small bowl, combine spinach leaves, crumbled feta cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Stuff each chicken breast with the spinach and feta mixture. Secure with toothpicks if needed.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.
- Transfer the seared chicken breasts to the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and remove the toothpicks before serving.
