Main Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add fresh spinach and diced tomato, cooking until the spinach wilts. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Take the butterflied chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Stuff each chicken breast with the sautéed spinach mixture, folding them over to seal.

  3. 3

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, and milk. Stir continuously until melted and smooth. Add garlic powder and mix well. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Bake the Chicken

    Place stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour cheese sauce over the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until chicken is cooked through and cheese is bubbly.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Fries

    While the chicken is baking, prepare the French fries according to package instructions, tossing with olive oil and baking until golden and crispy.

  6. 6

    Serve

    On a plate, create a bed of chipotle sauce, place the baked chicken on top, and serve with crispy fries on the side.
