- 2 tbsp butter or olive oil
- 4 chicken breasts butterflied
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 2 tbsp Italian spices
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese
- 4 oz cream cheese
- ¼ cup spinach
- ¼ diced roasted red bell pepper
In a large pan, heat oil or butter on medium high until shimmery or foamy.
Generously salt and pepper chicken.
Add chicken, butterflied, to pan (so it cooks flat).
Cook 5 minutes on each side, until well browned and internal temperature has reached 150 degrees.
While chicken is cooking, mix all other ingredients in a bowl.
Add cheese and spinach mixture to one browned side of the chicken breast, and fold in half.
Cook an additional 3-4 minutes per side to melt cheese and bring chicken to 165 degrees internal temperature (be sure to measure the temp of the chicken - not the filling!)
