Stuffed Chicken Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to about 1/2 inch thickness using a meat mallet.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, mixed cheeses, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Chicken

    Lay the pounded chicken breasts flat and spoon the cheese mixture onto one side of each breast. Fold the other side over to create a pocket. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the stuffed chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until cooked through.

  5. 5

    Cook the Spaghetti

    While the chicken is baking, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Sauces

    In a small saucepan, heat the alfredo sauce and marinara sauce separately until warm.

  7. 7

    Serve

    To serve, place a portion of spaghetti on each plate, topped with half of the alfredo sauce and half of the marinara sauce. Slice the stuffed chicken and place it on top.
