Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup whipped cream cheese
- 1/4 cup jarred sun-dried tomatoes in oil chopped
- 1/4 cup artichoke quarters chopped
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- Salt & black pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Prepare the Filling:
- In a bowl, mix together the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, chopped artichokes, and whipped cream cheese. Season with salt to taste.
Prepare the Chicken:
- Lay each chicken breast flat on a cutting board and cut a slit into each one about 3/4 of the way through, creating a pocket. Brush both sides of each chicken breast with a small amount of oil from the sun-dried tomato jar, then season with salt and black pepper.
Sear the Chicken:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each chicken breast for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown, then transfer to the prepared baking dish.
Stuff the Chicken:
- Divide the filling evenly among the chicken breasts, stuffing it into the slits. Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top of each breast.
Bake:
- Bake for 20-22 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Serve immediately!
