Stuffed Tuscan Chicken
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbs olive oil
- 2 tbs Cajun seasoning (I use Slap Yo Mama - I find it at Walmart)
- 1 tbs Italian seasoning
- 1 tbs paprika
- 1 tbs onion powder
- 1 container Alouette garlic herb cheese spread
- 1 small container of sun dried tomatoes (chop all the tomatoes and reserve the oil)
- 1 10 oz pkg of frozen spinach, thawed & drained
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Directions:
Butterfly all of the chicken breasts, being careful not to slice them all the way through. Rub the chicken with the reserved oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. Season the chicken with the Cajun spice, Italian spice, paprika, and onion powder. In a separate bowl, mix together the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic herb cheese, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Add a heaping tablespoon of the mixture to each chicken breast and press both sides together to close (use toothpicks to seal so the mixture doesn't come out. Bake at 350 for 30-40 mins (the original recipe calls for searing both sides of the chicken in a pan for baking but I did not find this step necessary, especially on a weeknight). Let rest 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
