Here's how to make Stuffed Chicken Breast with Sun-dried Tomato Spinach Artichoke baked in the oven. Are you ready for the recipe?
In a small sauté pan heat 1 teaspoon Olive Oil.
Add 1/2 cup Baby Spinach, and cook until just wilted.
Set aside to cool, and then chop roughly.
In a small bowl stir together:
- 1/2 cup Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
- 2 ounces Cream Cheese, Cooked Spinach
- 2 teaspoons Chopped Sun-Dried Tomatoes
- 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 pinch of Salt
Fold in 1 canned Artichoke Heart Chopped Roughly. (Not a whole can.)
In a pie plate or something of similar size combine:
- 1/2 cup Panko Bread Crumbs
- 1 teaspoon Parsley
- 1 teaspoon Granulated Garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
Slice each chicken breast horizontally to make a slit but being careful not to cut through other side of breast.
Stuff with filling and fold the top over as much as possible.
Melt 1/3 cup Butter for 2-3 chicken breasts, and brush the outside of chicken with butter.
For 6 chicken breasts you will only need about 2/3 cup melted butter.
Press chicken into panko bread crumb mixture, until well coated. Place chicken into a small baking dish.
Drizzle with remaining melted butter, and bake in a 375 degree oven for 35-45 minutes until chicken reaches 165 degrees on a thermometer.
Bake time will depend on size of chicken breast.

- 1/2 Panko Bread Crumbs
- 1 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dried Parsley

- 1/2 teaspoon Salt

If you're really looking to kick your chicken up a notch you can make Oven Baked Cheesy Bacon Ranch Baked Chicken.

Brush outside with butter, and coat in the panko bread crumb mixture for Cheesy Garlic Baked Chicken.
