Instructions
- 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking dish or oven-safe skillet.
- 2. In a bowl, mix the ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, spinach, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, oregano, and breadcrumbs until well combined.
- 3. Slice a pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
- 4. Spoon the filling evenly into the chicken breasts and secure the openings with toothpicks if needed.
- 5. Heat the Bruschetta Infused Olive Oil Blend and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes per side until lightly golden.
- 6. Transfer the chicken to the baking dish, scatter the cherry tomatoes around it, and spoon any remaining pan juices over the top.
- 7. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165°F in the thickest part and the filling is hot and bubbling.
- 8. Rest for 5 minutes before serving so the juices settle and the filling stays creamy.
Notes
For the neatest presentation, do not overfill the chicken breasts. If the filling seems loose, let it sit for a minute before stuffing so the cheeses hold together a little better. The bruschetta blend adds flavor to both the sear and the pan juices, so keep every drop in the final spooning over the chicken.
