Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Toothpicks for sealing

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
  • In a bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, salt, and pepper until smooth and combined.
  • Slice a pocket into the side of each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  • Stuff each chicken breast with the cream cheese mixture, then secure the opening with toothpicks to keep the filling inside.
  • Rub the outside of the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then serve.

Notes

  • For added flavor, you can mix chopped spinach or sun-dried tomatoes into the cream cheese filling.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
  • If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the chicken to a baking dish after searing.
