Bacon & Spinach Stuffed Chicken
INGREDIENTS
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c. frozen spinach, defrosted and drained
1/3 c. chopped artichoke hearts
1 c. shredded mozzarella, divided
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
4 strips bacon, cut into 4 strips
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 400°. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Make slits widthwise in chicken, being careful not to cut all the way through chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Place on prepared baking sheet.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, spinach, artichokes, and ½ cup of mozzarella. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Fill every other slit with cream cheese mixture and fill remaining slits with a piece of bacon. Sprinkle remaining ½ cup mozzarella on top and drizzle with oil.
- Bake until chicken is cooked through and bacon is crispy, 35 minutes.
