Making spinach stuffed chicken breasts can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, combine chopped spinach, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic, onion powder, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.
3. Prepare Chicken: Take each chicken breast and cut a pocket into the side, being careful not to slice all the way through.
4. Stuff Chicken: Generously fill each pocket with the spinach-cheese mixture using a spoon or spatula.
5. Secure Filling: Use toothpicks to secure the opening of the chicken breast, ensuring the stuffing doesn’t spill out during cooking.
6. Sear Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
7. Add Broth: Pour chicken broth around the chicken breasts in the skillet for added moisture during baking (optional).
8. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
9. Rest Chicken: Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain the juices.
10. Serve: Slice the stuffed chicken breasts and serve warm, drizzled with any remaining broth from the skillet.

With these steps, you’ll create an amazing dish that is sure to be a hit at your table!
