Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Breast
A delicious and protein-packed dish that uses expired feta cheese crumbles. Ensure the cheese is still safe to consume by checking for any signs of spoilage.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1/4 cup expired feta cheese crumbles
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast.
In a small bowl, mix together the spinach, feta cheese, olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Stuff each chicken breast with the spinach and feta mixture, pressing the edges to seal.
Season the outside of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Slice the chicken breasts and serve with your favorite side dishes.
Enjoy!
