Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup fresh spinach leaves
1 cup roasted red peppers, sliced
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh basil leaves, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with a little olive oil. 🍗✨
Prepare the Chicken: Using a sharp knife, make a horizontal slit along the thin side of each chicken breast to create a pocket. Be careful not to cut all the way through. 🌿🌟
Stuff the Chicken: Stuff each chicken breast with a few spinach leaves, slices of roasted red pepper, and a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese. Use toothpicks to secure the opening if necessary. 🍗🧀
Season the Chicken: In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture over the stuffed chicken breasts. 🌿🧄
Bake: Place the stuffed chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly. 🕒🔥
Garnish and Serve: Remove the toothpicks (if used) and transfer the chicken to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped fresh basil leaves. Serve hot and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors in this Roasted Red Pepper, Spinach, and Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken! 🍽️
