Tender chicken breasts filled with vibrant spinach, sweet dried cranberries, and rich brie cheese, all baked to juicy perfection.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 4 ounces brie cheese, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the chicken breasts by cutting a pocket into the side of each breast.
  3. Season both the insides and outsides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried thyme.
  4. In a pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the spinach until it wilts. Let it cool slightly.
  5. Mix the sautéed spinach with the dried cranberries in a small bowl.
  6. Stuff each chicken breast with the spinach and cranberry mixture and top with slices of brie cheese. Secure the openings with toothpicks.
  7. Heat more olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat, and sear each side of the stuffed chicken until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
  8. Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and transfer it to the oven.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  10. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Consider swapping out brie for goat cheese for a tangier flavor. Use kitchen twine to tie the chicken breasts if stuffing spills out.
