How to Make Beginners Stuffed Chicken Breasts

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the stuffing: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked rice, sauteed spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Butterfly the chicken breasts: Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, gently pound each breast to about 1/2 inch thickness. Be careful not to pound them too thin.
  4. Stuff the chicken breasts: Place about 1/4 cup of the stuffing mixture onto the center of each butterflied chicken breast. Fold the chicken breast over the stuffing, tucking in the sides to create a neat package. Secure with toothpicks.
  5. Sear the chicken (optional): Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side to brown them slightly. This step adds extra flavor but is optional.
  6. Bake the chicken: Transfer the skillet (or chicken breasts directly to a baking dish) to the preheated oven. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  7. Rest and serve: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before removing the toothpicks and serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade stuffed chicken breasts!
