Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil for searing
1/2 cup chicken broth
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
3. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
5. Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket in each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.
6. Stuff each chicken breast with the spinach and feta mixture, securing with toothpicks if necessary.
7. Heat another tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat and sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
8. Transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish, add chicken broth to the dish, and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
9. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
