Keto Parmesan Stuffed Chicken

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine mozzarella and parmesan cheese in a small bowl and set aside.

Step 2

Use a sharp knife to cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast. Generously season both sides of the chicken breasts with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt & pepper.

Step 3

Stuff about ¼ cup of cheese into each chicken breasts and fold or seal with toothpicks if available.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoons olive oil in a large heavy-duty pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden.

Step 5

Remove from heat and spoon sauce on chicken breasts. Top each chicken breast with a few tablespoons of cheese and bake uncovered at 375˚F for 15-20 min, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 165˚F.

Step 6

Serve immediately with a chopped salad, steam veggies or zucchini noodles.
