Follow these simple steps to create your Savory Stuffed Chicken with Roasted Red Peppers, Spinach, and Mozzarella:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Filling:
– In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
– Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
– Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
– Stir in the roasted red peppers and Italian seasoning; season with salt and pepper.
– Remove from heat and mix in the mozzarella cheese until combined.
3. Prepare the Chicken:
– Carefully slice each chicken breast horizontally to create a pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through.
– Season the chicken with salt and pepper, both inside the pocket and on the outer surfaces.
4. Stuff the Chicken:
– Spoon the filling into each chicken breast pocket, being generous but not overstuffing, to ensure the chicken can be closed.
– Secure the openings with toothpicks or tie with kitchen twine to prevent the filling from spilling out.
5. Sear the Chicken:
– In an oven-safe skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat.
– Add the stuffed chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6. Bake:
– Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
7. Rest:
– Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. This will help retain moisture.
8. Slice and Serve:
– Remove toothpicks or twine, and slice the chicken to reveal the stuffing.

Enjoy the incredible aromas and flavors as you plate your masterpiece!
