Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast Recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F.

Step 2

Combine salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika in a small dish. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken breasts. Rub the seasoning mixture on the chicken and coat evenly.

Step 3

Combine all filling ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.

Step 4

Cut out a wide pocket in each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Step 5

Stuff each chicken breast with the filling.

Step 6

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once heated, sear the stuffed chicken breasts on each side, but don’t cook through. You may need to do this in two batches depending on the size of your chicken breasts. Place all 4 breasts in the skillet and transfer the skillet to the oven.

Step 7

Bake for 25-35 minutes until the chicken breasts are cooked through.
