Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: red pepper flakes, parsley or basil for garnish
Instructions
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Toss in the spinach, cooking until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a bowl, combine the sautéed spinach, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine evenly.
Take each chicken breast and place it between two sheets of plastic wrap. Gently pound them to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch thick.
Lay a portion of the filling onto each pounded chicken breast and roll tightly from one end to the other, securing with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the rolled chicken and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish and pour a bit of reserved chicken broth or a splash of white wine in the bottom of the dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through.
Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes before cutting. Serve with a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
Notes
