🧾 Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
For the Filling:
- 100g (about 3.5 oz) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped spinach (fresh or thawed frozen)
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 1 clove garlic, minced
For Wrapping:
- 6–8 strips of bacon
🔪 Step-by-Step Method
1. Prepare the Chicken
Start by placing the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice each breast horizontally to create a pocket—be careful not to cut all the way through.
Season both the outside and inside of the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. This ensures every bite is flavorful.
2. Make the Creamy Filling
In a mixing bowl, combine:
- Cream cheese
- Mozzarella
- Spinach
- Parsley
- Minced garlic
Mix until smooth and evenly blended. The filling should be thick, creamy, and packed with flavor.
3. Stuff the Chicken
Spoon the filling evenly into each chicken breast pocket. Press gently to seal. If needed, use toothpicks to secure the opening and prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
