  • 1/2 Cup.Of cream cheese.
  • 1 Tbsp.Of minced garlic.
  • 3 Cups.Of diced broccoli, into bite-size pieces.

This recipe for stuffed chicken breast is really simple to prepare and only requires a few simple steps. It seems to be quite complicated, however, it is surprisingly simple to make:

  • Step 1: The oven should be set at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Step 3: Put all of the ingredients in a small bowl except the salt and pepper. Mix well until everything is well-combined. Set aside after combining with a spoon.
  • Step 4: Using a sharp knife, cut the chicken breast in half lengthwise, keeping the chicken breast intact but creating a flap, on a cutting board.
  • Step 5: Season both sides of the chicken breast with the spice rub, being sure to get inside the flap as well.
  • Step 6: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, and minced garlic until everything is well blended.
  • Step 7: Continue to combine until all the vegetables are covered in the Greek yogurt sauce, then throw in the diced broccoli and toss well. And m Make four equal portions of the broccoli mixture.
  • Step 8: In the middle of the chicken breast, stuff it with 1/4 of the broccoli mixture by tucking it between the two flaps, and use 3 toothpicks to secure the broccoli cheese filling until it holds together. Repeat the same process for the remaining chicken breasts.
  • Step 9: Pour some oil into a large cast-iron skillet and put it on the stove over medium- or high heat. It’s time to add the stuffed chicken breasts to the pan. Sear each side for 2-3 minutes to get it to brown up a little.
  • Step 10: Be careful when you put the cast iron skillet in the oven. Make sure the handle isn’t hot. Bake for 30 minutes at 375oF with the skillet turned over halfway through.
  • Step 11: Make sure the chicken breast is cooked through by using a meat thermometer to check the temperature, so before you remove it from the oven, check that it has reached a temperature of at least 165 degrees F.
  • Step 12: Once it’s done cooking, let it cool for 5 minutes, and then it will be ready to serve.
