Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 8 slices Prosciutto
• 0.5 cup Sun-dried tomatoes (drained if in oil, roughly chopped)
• 1 cup Baby spinach leaves (roughly chopped)
• 0.5 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 8 pieces Toothpicks (optional for securing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into each chicken breast by slicing lengthwise, making sure not to cut all the way through.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the sun-dried tomatoes, chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and minced garlic. Stir to mix evenly.

Step 4

Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 5

Spoon the filling mixture into the pocket of each chicken breast, dividing it evenly among the four pieces.

Step 6

Wrap each stuffed chicken breast with two slices of prosciutto, ensuring the filling is secured. If needed, secure with toothpicks to hold the prosciutto and filling in place.

Step 7

Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear the wrapped chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until the prosciutto is golden and slightly crisp.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven (or move the chicken to the prepared baking dish) and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove toothpicks if used.

Step 10

Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed vegetables, a fresh salad, or roasted potatoes.
