This Stuffed Chicken Breast is juicy and moist from inside with stuffed with cheese and spinach which can be a perfect chicken dinner for the entire family.
This recipe can also be called as Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breast because it has that awesome flavor and taste of fresh baby spinach.
And again this Baked Stuffed Chicken Breast and be called as Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast because it is filled with parmesan cheese and mayonnaise. I am sure that when you will cut the baked chicken breast pieces in slices and serve it with rice pilaf, you will be just amazed by all the awesome cheesy baked flavors.
Easy Stuffed Chicken Breast – Variations
Frankly speaking, this baked stuffed chicken breast recipe is so versatile, you can pretty much add anything you want, but I always try something different like someday I stuff it Fajitas (Chicken Fajitas) and you can get that awesome color with all different types of bell peppers (green, red, yellow)
Otherwise, if you are in a hurry try to make a stuffing of garlic, butter and spinach and stuff the chicken breast and bake (See the stuffing recipe here – Its Chicken Kiev) and even you can try olives, chopped broccoli florets, fresh herbs, dried tomatoes, etc.
