Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a sharp knife, make a pocket in each

chicken breast by cutting along the side, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Make the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the finely chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese,

cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly

distributed.

Stuff the Chicken: Spoon the broccoli and cheese mixture into each chicken breast pocket, pressing

the edges together to seal. You can use toothpicks to secure the edges if needed.

Season the Chicken: Rub the outside of each chicken breast with olive oil and season with salt and

pepper.

Cook the Chicken: Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the stuffed chicken

breasts and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

Bake the Chicken: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the

chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Garnish and Serve: Remove the toothpicks if used. Garnish the chicken with chopped fresh parsley

before serving.
