INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Fresh Spinach
1/4 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese, Shredded
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Olive Oil
Salt to taste
Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice a pocket into the side of the chicken breast without cutting all the way through.
In a small bowl, mix together the fresh spinach, low-fat ricotta, shredded mozzarella, and finely minced garlic. Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Stuff the chicken breast pocket with the spinach and cheese mixture, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
Heat a non-stick oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add the teaspoon of olive oil. Sear the stuffed chicken breast on each side for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the filling is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
