Easy Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375 °F.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, spinach, tomatoes, garlic, and parsley until combined.

Step 3

Carefully cut a pocket with a sharp knife in the side of each chicken breast without slicing all the way through. Season the chicken with paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 4

Divide the cream cheese mixture evenly between the chicken breasts, stuffing each one with the filling. Secure with toothpicks if needed.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.

Step 6

Bake for 18-20 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 °F.

Step 7

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
