Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Sure, here’s a recipe for Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breasts:

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cups fresh spinach leaves, chopped
• 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a mixing bowl, combine chopped spinach, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.
3. Using a sharp knife, cut a slit horizontally into each chicken breast to create a pocket. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
