Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (232 degrees C). Line a baking sheet or pan with parchment paper or foil (or use a stoneware pan that doesn't stick).
- Fill a large bowl with water and a couple tablespoons of sea salt. Place the chicken breasts in the water, submerging fully. Brine for at least 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, steam the spinach in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, or on the stove for 3-5 minutes, until wilted. When the spinach is cool enough to handle, squeeze over the sink to release as much water as possible. Place back into the bowl.
- Stir the garlic and 2 oz shredded mozzarella (half of the total amount) into the spinach. Heat the cream cheese until easy to stir, then mix that in.
- Remove the chicken from the water and pat dry. Place onto the prepared baking pan. Cut a slit in each chicken breast horizontally, creating a pocket.
- Stuff the spinach mixture into each pocket in the chicken. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
- Top each piece of chicken with 2 tomato slices and 1/2 oz shredded mozzarella.
- Bake for 16-20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. (If the cheese starts to brown sooner, you can tent the top with foil and continue baking.)

Transfer mushrooms, garlic and shallot to the food processor. Pulse to grind the mushrooms and transfer to the mixing bowl, adding the processed mushrooms to the spinach. Add ricotta and grated cheese to the bowl and the nutmeg. Stir to combine the stuffing. Return your skillet to the stove over medium high heat.

SPINACH AND CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST #RSC
Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. I love creating my own recipes and menus for people. I have been doing this since I was about 12 years old. I put together a birthday party with lots of freshly prepared food and cake that I prepared for my mom. I had help from my cousins and friends who were my assistants and servers. The party was a great success and I have been doing this ever since. I made this chicken dish 8 years ago and it was the only thing different my mom would eat so I made sure I perfected the dish just for her and of course others. I usually brine my chicken in a mixture of salt, brown sugar and water for at least 45 minutes

- Mix the chopped frozen spinach, feta, cream cheese, garlic and half of the salt in a medium sized bowl.
- Cut a pocket into each chicken breast. If you are unsure of how to cut a pocket into the chicken without also cutting a pocket into your hand, try this: One at a time, place the chicken flat on a cutting board, and press a large spatula ( or something else that cannot be stabbed, i.e. DO NOT USE YOUR HAND) flat on top of the breast. Make sure that you are pressing the spatula down hard enough to hold the chicken in place. You may need to actually dig the edge of the spatula into the meat just a little bit to accomplish this. Insert the knife 2/3 of the way into the side of the thickest part of the chicken, and slice down to the thinnest part, stopping before you cut through; you want a pocket not a flap.
- Separate the spinach and cheese mixture into three parts, and roll into thick logs. Stuff each log into the pocket you made in the chicken breasts. Season with remaining salt and pepper.

- Cut pockets in the chicken breasts: Place a cutting board on the counter, making sure that it is steadily in place and doesn't slide around (if it is slipping, place a damp paper towel underneath). Lay a breast on the cutting board and press your hand on top to hold it into place. Insert the tip of a sharp chef’s knife into the center of the thickest part of the breast. First, cut a slit that is 4 inches wide in the thickest part (leave the thin end uncut). Then, use the knife to make the opening deeper, cutting 3/4 of the way through the breast towards the other side. Do not cut all the way through. Repeat with the remaining breasts. With paper towels, pat the chicken dry, then sprinkle the outsides with 3/4 kosher salt.
- In a large, oven-safe, non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the shallot and cook until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Adjust the heat as needed so that the shallot softens but does not burn.
- Stir in the sage, oregano, pepper, nutmeg, remaining ½ teaspoon salt, and last the garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
