Ricotta, Spinach and Garlic Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

4 Chicken Breast
1 Container Ricotta Cheese (I believe it was 16 oz)
1 Handful Spinach Leaves, Chopped
Breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon Minced Garlic

Directions

• Mix Together Spinach Leaves, Garlic, and Ricotta Cheese
• Cut a “pocket” into the thickest part of each chicken breast. Cut deeply, but ensure that you do not cut thru to the other side.
• Take a Tablespoon of ricotta mixture and stuff into pocket. Continue to add mixture until you can no longer add more, but do not let it bulge out. Toothpick pocket closed.
• Roll into breadcrumbs (I like to add about 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of onion powder to these breadcrumbs for more flavor), until chicken breast is coated.
• Bake at 350 degrees until chicken is cooked thru (25-30 minutes typically).
