Florentine Stuffed Chicken image

Bone-in chicken breasts stuffed with spinach, cheese and onion and baked until tender. This is a simple recipe that I cooked up myself. It is, however, based on some pretty standard Greek/Italian dishes. Everyone loves this and it can be wonderful for company - even people who don't usually like spinach find that they like this dish! Serve with your favorite shaped pasta, if desired.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup chopped onion
4 bone-in chicken breast halves, with skin
2 cups spaghetti sauce
¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a medium bowl, combine the spinach, Parmesan cheese and onion and mix thoroughly. Stuff the cavity of each chicken breast with 1/4 of the mixture. (NOTE: Bone-in split breasts usually have a little cavity; if one is not naturally present, use a sharp knife to make a slit in the side of the breast.)
  • Lay stuffed breasts in a 9x13 inch baking dish, and cover with the sauce.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 35 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and tender; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and bake another 5 minutes, until cheese is melted.

Overall, I was disappointed with this recipe. The chicken was bland and the stuffing was dry.

This Florentine Stuffed Chicken is a must-try! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the stuffing was packed with spinach, cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes. I will definitely be making this again.
