Today’s Special: Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share a recipe that brings together some unique flavors and textures in one delicious dish. This Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken is perfect for a cozy dinner at home or a special gathering with friends. Let’s dive into how to make this mouthwatering recipe!

Ingredients:

• chicken breasts (4 medium-sized)
• cream cheese (200g)
• frozen spinach (200g, thawed and drained)
• marinated artichoke hearts (150g, chopped)
• mozzarella cheese (100g, grated)
• parmesan cheese (50g, grated)
• garlic powder (1 tsp)
• salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• knife
• cutting board
• baking dish
• oven

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, spinach, artichoke hearts, mozzarella, parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.

Next, butterfly each chicken breast by slicing it horizontally without cutting all the way through. Open up the chicken breasts and evenly divide the spinach artichoke mixture among them, spreading it out in a layer.

Carefully fold the chicken breasts back over the filling, enclosing it completely. Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish and sprinkle with a bit more mozzarella cheese on top.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly. You can also broil it for a few minutes at the end to get a nice golden crust on the cheese.

Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Cut into thick slices and enjoy the ooey-gooey, cheesy goodness of the spinach artichoke filling with tender chicken.

This Cheesy Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken is sure to be a hit at your next meal. It’s creamy, savory, and packed with flavor in every bite. Give it a try and make it your own by adding your favorite herbs or spices to the filling!

One tip for this recipe is to use fresh spinach instead of frozen for a burst of vibrant color and a slightly different texture in the filling. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice for a zesty kick!
