Cranberry & Spinach Stuffed Chicken Breasts with Brie 





Ingredients 

For the Chicken:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 

1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped 

1/3 cup dried cranberries 

4 oz brie cheese, sliced 

2 tablespoons olive oil 

1 teaspoon garlic powder 

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 

1/2 teaspoon salt 

1/4 teaspoon black pepper 

For the Glaze:
2 tablespoons honey 

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 

1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard 

Instructions 

Prepare the Chicken:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line with parchment paper.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast without slicing all the way through.
Make the Filling:
In a bowl, mix the chopped spinach, dried cranberries, and slices of brie cheese.
Stuff each chicken breast with the mixture, securing the opening with toothpicks if needed.
Season the Chicken:
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Sear and Bake:
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven (or place the chicken in the prepared baking dish) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Make the Glaze:
While the chicken is baking, whisk together honey, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a small saucepan. Heat over low heat until slightly thickened.
Serve:
Drizzle the glaze over the chicken before serving. Remove toothpicks if used.
Garnish with additional dried cranberries or fresh spinach if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
Pair with roasted vegetables, wild rice, or a crisp green salad.
Perfect for a cozy dinner or a festive holiday meal.
