Provided by francescunniffhargrove

Categories     Main Dish

Time 30m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 oz pepper jack cheese shredded (you can use up to 6 oz)
1 c frozen spinach thawed and drained (you can also use fresh cooked spinach)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp breadcrumbs (Italian style is good)
Sea salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Lots of toothpicks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Flatten the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. In a medium bowl, combine the pepper jack cheese, spinach, salt and pepper. Combine the seasoning and breadcrumbs together in a small bowl. Spoon about 1/4 c of the spinach mixture onto each chicken breast. Roll each chicken breast tightly and fasten the seams with several toothpicks. This part requires a tiny bit of skill and I typically use about 8 toothpicks in each roll to ensure none of the filling seeps out. Be sure to count how many total toothpicks were used! Brush each chicken breast with the olive oil. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over all. Sprinkle any remaining spinach and cheese on top of chicken (optional). Place the chicken seam-side up onto a tin foil-lined baking sheet (for easy cleanup). Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the toothpicks before serving. Count to make sure you have removed every last toothpick. Serve whole or slice into medallions.

CAJUN CHICKEN STUFFED WITH PEPPER JACK CHEESE & SPINACH RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Cajun Chicken Stuffed with Pepper Jack Cheese & Spinach Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by á-2825

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 ounces pepper jack cheese, shredded
1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and drained (you can also use fresh cooked spinach)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons cajun seasoning
1 tablespoon breadcrumbs (I used Italian style)
Sea salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Lots of toothpicks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Flatten the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, combine the pepper jack cheese, spinach, salt and pepper. Combine the Cajun seasoning and breadcrumbs together in a small bowl. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the spinach mixture onto each chicken breast. Roll each chicken breast tightly and fasten the seams with several toothpicks. This part requires a tiny bit of skill and I typically use about 8 toothpicks in each roll to ensure none of the filling seeps out. Be sure to count how many total toothpicks were used! Brush each chicken breast with the olive oil. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning mixture evenly over all. Make sure you get underneath, too. Sprinkle any remaining spinach and cheese on top of chicken (optional). Place the chicken seam-side up onto a tin foil-lined baking sheet (for easy cleanup). Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the toothpicks before serving. Count to make sure you have removed every last toothpick. Serve whole or slice into medallions. *If you have little ones eating this or your spice tolerance is fairly low, halve the Cajun seasoning and double the breadcrumbs. Also, try substituting some of your favorite vegetables in place of the spinach. Some of my favorites include broccoli (parboiled before stuffing in the chicken) and crunchy chopped celery.
