Discover easy Spinach Stuffed Chicken RollUps with Feta A delightful dish packed with flavor perfect for a quick dinner or meal prep Enjoy
Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup breadcrumbs (optional, for added texture)
Fresh herbs for garnish (such as parsley or dill)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). As it heats up, place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them gently with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are about ½ inch thick.
2. Make the Filling: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Mix everything together until well combined.
3. Stuff the Chicken: Take a chicken breast and place a generous scoop of the spinach-feta filling on one end. Begin rolling the chicken tightly, tucking in the edges as you go.
4. Secure the Roll-Ups: Secure each roll-up with toothpicks to hold them together.
5. Sear the Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, place the chicken roll-ups in, searing them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
6. Bake to Perfection: Transfer the skillet to your preheated oven. Bake the chicken roll-ups for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
7. Garnish and Serve: Remove the toothpicks or twine, let the roll-ups rest for about 5 minutes, slice them into pinwheels, and garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
