Mozzarella Stuffed Chicken: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped spinach, sun-dried tomatoes (if using), garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Place each chicken breast on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into each breast, being careful not to slice all the way through.
  4. Generously fill each pocket with the mozzarella mixture, pressing gently to ensure it stays in place.
  5. Set up a breading station by placing the beaten eggs in one bowl and breadcrumbs in another. Dip each stuffed chicken breast first into the eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, ensuring an even layer.
  6. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
  7. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  8. Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
