- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup of heavy cream
- 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Step 2: Prepare the chicken breasts
Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into each chicken breast. Be careful not to cut all the way through. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Step 3: Stuff the chicken breasts
Stuff each chicken breast with a handful of spinach, some sun-dried tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese. Use toothpicks to secure the chicken breasts closed.
Step 4: Cook the chicken breasts
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Step 5: Make the sauce
While the chicken is cooking, make the sauce. In a small saucepan, heat minced garlic in olive oil over medium heat until fragrant. Add heavy cream and Parmesan cheese and whisk until the sauce thickens.
Step 6: Serve
Once the chicken is done, remove the toothpicks and serve with the creamy garlic sauce.
