  • 4 tablespoons olive oil divided

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375℉.
  2. Rub chicken breasts with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Cut out a wide pocket in each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  4. Stuff each chicken breast with roasted red peppers, 1 slice of cheese, and spinach.
  5. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  6. Once heated, sear the stuffed chicken breasts on each side, but don’t cook through. (You may need to do this in two batches depending on the size of your chicken breasts.)
  7. Place all 4 breasts in the skillet and transfer the skillet to the oven.
  8. Cook for 30-40 minutes, until the chicken breasts are cooked through.
  9. Spoon the pan juices over the chicken and serve.
