Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Oven
  • Baking Dish

Ingredients
  

Chicken and Filling

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms button or cremini
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper to taste

Finishing

  • 1 tbsp butter melted, for brushing
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast without slicing all the way through.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté mushrooms and garlic until tender and golden. Remove from heat.
  • In a bowl, combine the cooked mushrooms with cream cheese, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Stuff each chicken breast with the filling and secure with toothpicks if needed.
  • Place chicken in a baking dish. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with paprika.
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Let rest for a few minutes. Remove toothpicks and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, brown the chicken briefly in a skillet before baking. Customize the filling with spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, or mozzarella. Serve with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
