Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine spinach, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, Mozzarella cheese, garlic, salt and pepper until fully combined.

Lay them flat on a sturdy surface. Place one hand on top to hold it in place, then slice 3/4 of the way through the chicken breast (be careful not to slice all the way through).

Season the outside of the chicken with chili powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Spoon 1/4 of cheese mixture into the middle of the cut chicken breasts, and fold the chicken so the cream cheese is sealed inside. Use toothpicks to secure chicken, if desired.

To Cook:

Step 8

Heat a non-stick skillet on med-high, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook the chicken for about 9-10 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through.
