Print Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup cooked bacon, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh thyme, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Butterfly each chicken breast by slicing it horizontally but not all the way through, then open like a book.
  3. Place each piece between two sheets of parchment paper and pound to even thickness using a meat mallet.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine chopped spinach, feta, cream cheese, bacon, garlic, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  5. Spread the filling evenly over each flattened chicken breast.
  6. Roll each breast tightly, secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine if needed.
  7. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken on all sides until golden brown, about 4–5 minutes total.
  8. Transfer to a baking dish and roast for 20–25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  9. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  10. Garnish with fresh thyme and serve hot.

Notes

  • Ensure even thickness of chicken for easy rolling and even cooking.
  • Use toothpicks or kitchen twine to keep rolls secure while cooking.
  • You can prepare the filling ahead of time for quicker assembly.
