🫑🌿 Roasted Red Pepper, Spinach & Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken

Ingredients (Serves 4)

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup fresh spinach leaves (lightly sautéed or fresh)
1 cup roasted red peppers (from jar or freshly roasted), sliced
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or fresh mozzarella slices)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp Italian seasoning
½ tsp smoked paprika
Salt and black pepper, to taste
½ tsp red chili flakes (optional, for heat)
Toothpicks or kitchen twine (to secure chicken)

Instructions

1. Prep the Chicken

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Carefully slice each chicken breast horizontally to create a pocket (don’t cut all the way through).
Season both sides with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and Italian seasoning.

2. Make the Filling

In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil and sauté garlic for 30 seconds.
Add spinach and cook until just wilted (if using fresh). Remove from heat.
Mix spinach, roasted red pepper slices, and mozzarella together.

3. Stuff the Chicken

Spoon filling into each chicken breast pocket.
Secure with toothpicks to keep filling inside.

4. Sear the Chicken

Heat remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear chicken breasts for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown.

5. Bake

Transfer seared chicken to a baking dish.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internal temperature.

6. Serve

Remove toothpicks and let chicken rest for 5 minutes.
Serve with pasta, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.

Tips & Variations

Cheese options: Swap mozzarella for provolone, feta, or goat cheese.
Extra flavor: Add sun-dried tomatoes or basil leaves inside the stuffing.
Low-carb option: Pair with zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice.
Meal prep: Make ahead and refrigerate; just bake before serving.
