Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts about 6 oz each
  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes drained and chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided use if needed
  • 1 tsp dried oregano divided use
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder divided use
  • 1/2 tsp salt divided use
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper divided use

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Cut a deep pocket into the side of each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through. Season the outside with half of the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • In a medium bowl, combine chopped spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese, oregano, and the remaining salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Stuff each chicken breast pocket evenly with the spinach and feta mixture. Secure the openings with toothpicks if necessary.
  • Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove from the oven, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
