ARTICHOKE-STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS
This is something I came up with one night. I love stuffed chicken breast, but I wanted something different. Serve this with vegetables of choice, warm bread and a nice tossed salad. You can leave the italian seasoning and red onion off the top, if you wish, but I thought it nice... just experimenting.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
- In a large nonstick skillet heat ½ tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add half of the spinach, salt, and pepper. Stir until the spinach is wilted. Continue to add handfuls of spinach until all spinach is wilted. TIP: Placing a lid over the skillet helps the spinach cook down faster.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the artichokes and cream cheese. Stir until cream cheese melts and mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in both mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Set aside.
- Place butterflied chicken breasts (see recipe notes) on the prepared baking sheet. On top of each chicken breast drizzle a little olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and paprika. Use your hands to spread olive oil and seasonings evenly over the top of chicken breasts.
- Open the chicken and evenly divide spinach artichoke filling. Close the chicken (like a closing a book), and bake for 20-25 minutes, depending on the size of your chicken breasts. For best results, use a thermometer to make sure chicken reaches a temperature of 165ºF.

ARTICHOKE-STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST, BUT WITH A DIFFERENT HAT
This is based on Recipe #350909, and I thought I would try it a bit differently one night. It's done basically the same, just roasted red bell pepper and Provolone cheese on top, instead of mozzarella. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Fit a rimmed baking sheet with a baking rack.
- Combine the artichoke hearts, pesto and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, 10 to 12 pulses. Set aside.
- Sprinkle the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper and arrange them pounded-side up on a work surface. Divide the provolone evenly among the cutlets, leaving a 1/4-inch border around the edges, then top evenly with the pesto and artichoke filling. Starting at the short end of each cutlet, roll up to enclose the filling. Secure with a wooden skewer and season with more salt and pepper.
- Put the flour in a shallow dish. Put the eggs in a second shallow dish and beat until very loose. Mix the breadcrumbs and remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan in a third shallow dish. Coat the chicken roll-ups first in the flour, then dip in the egg, letting any excess drip off. Last, coat fully with the breadcrumb mixture and transfer to a plate.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Put 3 of the roll-ups in the skillet seam-side down and cook, flipping as needed, until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Cook the remaining roll-ups in the same method, then transfer to the baking sheet. Bake the roll-ups until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove the skewers before serving.
ARTICHOKE AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST
Steps:
- In a saute pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil is hot add the onions and saute until translucent. Stir in the artichokes and sun-dried tomatoes. Saute for 3 to 5 minutes, then add the salt, pepper and garlic. When the garlic begins to lightly brown, deglaze with 1/4 cup of the white wine. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the butter, allow it to melt, then toss in the Parmesan and parsley.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool before stuffing the chicken breast.
- Rinse, trim and pound out chicken breasts to about 1/4-inch thick. Do not over-pound as holes in the chicken will make it difficult for the chicken to retain the stuffing.
- Put 1/4 of the stuffing mixture at 1 end of a chicken breast. Gentle roll the chicken breast folding the ends in to help keep the stuffing from coming out during the cooking process. Secure the chicken roll with 2 toothpicks. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts and stuffing.
- Heat the 2 tablespoons of the remaining oil in a medium saute pan over high heat. Add the chicken breasts, with the secured side of the chicken first, to insure the roll with stay together. Brown the chicken on all sides, add remaining butter, and deglaze with remaining white wine.
- Reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the chicken to a cutting board and discard the toothpicks. Slice each breast on a bias into 5 pieces and transfer to a serving platter. Drizzle with remaining pan drippings, garnish with a sprinkle of Parmesan and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium. Prepare the chicken: With your knife parallel to the cutting board, slice each chicken breast in half horizontally without cutting all the way through; open like a book. Cover with plastic wrap and pound until 1/2 inch thick.
- Make the filling: Mash the garlic-and-herb cheese, artichoke heart, parsley, dill and lemon zest in a bowl. Whisk the lemon juice and olive oil in a separate bowl; season with salt and pepper.
- Season the pounded chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and brush with half of the lemon oil; top with the spinach. Spoon the filling over the top, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Roll up the chicken toward the pointy end; tie with 3 pieces of kitchen twine. Brush with the remaining lemon oil.
- Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Grill the chicken breasts, turning, until cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes, then remove the twine and slice.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish.
- Combine artichoke hearts, feta, bell pepper, green onion, oregano, and pepper in a bowl.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Don't overstuff the chicken breasts: Too much stuffing will make the chicken breasts difficult to cook and may cause them to burst.
- Use a variety of vegetables in the stuffing: This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
- Season the stuffing well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of herbs and spices to the stuffing. This will help to flavor the chicken breasts.
- Cook the chicken breasts until they are cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken breasts should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken breasts rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken breasts, making them more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Artichoke stuffed chicken breasts are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. With a little planning and preparation, you can have a delicious and healthy meal on the table in no time.
