Delicious Ruth Chris Style Stuffed Chicken Recipe

This stuffed chicken recipe features tender chicken breasts filled with a delectable combination of spinach, cream cheese, and herbs. Each bite is a burst of flavor, with a crispy exterior leading to a creamy, savory center that will leave you craving more.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 cup breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Prep the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in each chicken breast by cutting horizontally without slicing all the way through.
Make the Filling: In a bowl, combine the chopped spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella, minced garlic, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Stuff the Chicken: Generously fill each chicken breast pocket with the spinach mixture. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
Sear the Chicken: In an oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C). If using breadcrumbs, sprinkle them on top during the last 5 minutes of baking for added crunch.
Serve: Remove toothpicks if used, slice, and serve hot with your favorite sides.
