Instructions
1
Add the garlic salt, onion powder, and paprika to a bowl and mix together.
2
Rub on the chicken breasts.
3
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and carefully slice the side of the chicken almost to the other side, making a pocket.
4
Combine the cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, and broccoli in a medium bowl and mix together. You may need to use your hands.
5
Scoop about 6-7 Tablespoons of the mixture and stuff it into a chicken breast. Repeat for each chicken breast.
6
Add butter and oil to a large pan and place over medium to high heat. Melt.
7
Once melted, place the chicken breast in the pan and sear until brown on each side, about 4-5 minutes per side.
8
Once both sides are brown, add the lid to the pan and turn the heat to low to cook the chicken all the way, about 15 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Butterfly and Pound for Even Cooking 🔪Carefully butterfly each chicken breast horizontally, then pound to uniform thickness (about ½ inch) to ensure the filling heats through while the meat stays juicy and cooks evenly.
- Pre-Cook Your Broccoli Filling 🥦Finely chop and briefly sauté the broccoli before mixing with cheeses to remove excess moisture and prevent a soggy filling that can make the chicken breast soggy during cooking.
- Secure Seams with Toothpicks Strategically 📍Use 2-3 toothpicks placed horizontally across the stuffed opening to prevent cheese leakage during searing and baking while keeping them easy to remove before serving.
- Sear Then Bake for Perfect Crust 🍳Get a golden crust by searing in hot oil and butter for 3-4 minutes per side, then finish in a 375°F oven for 12-15 minutes to reach 165°F internal temperature without overcooking.
- Mix Cream Cheese While Warm 🧈Add softened cream cheese to warm broccoli and garlic off heat, then fold in shredded cheeses for a silky, homogeneous filling that distributes evenly throughout the chicken breast.
