Spinach and Feta stuffed Grilled Chicken Breast

Serves: 4 | Prep Time: 25 minutes | Grilling Time: 40 minutes |

Ingredients 

  • 4 Chicken breast halves, skinned and boned
  • 1 Cup Feta cheese, thinly sliced
  • 1 package (10 oz. size) frozen cooked spinach, thawed and drained
  • ½ Cup Roasted red pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

 

Citrus Sauce

Ingredients 

  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • 2 tbsp dill weed
  • 1/3 cup 35% Cream

 

 

Instructions 

1.     Preheat the grill to 400F using direct heat. In a bowl combine the spinach, red pepper and feta cheese and stir to incorporate. Add the salt and pepper.

2.     Using your knife, gently make an incision at the thickest part of the chicken breast to form a pocket being careful not to poke the blade through the meat.

3.     Using a small plastic lunch bag, place the spinach mixture into the bag and snip the corner off. This will create a piping bag for you to insert the mixture into the chicken. Lightly oil the chicken breasts and season with salt & pepper.

4.     Place the chicken breasts onto the grill and sear for 4 minutes aside.

5.     Roast at 400F until golden brown and the internal temperature is 165F.

6.     Combine the citrus sauce ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat and stir. Continue to simmer for 4-5 minutes to reduce by half. Drizzle sauce over the chicken breast and serve immediately.
