Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roughly chop the artichokes and spinach.

Mix together the yogurt, ricotta, Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, artichokes, and spinach in a medium mixing bowl.

Cut a large slit in the side of each chicken breast to create a pocket, then spoon the spinach and artichoke stuffing into the pockets. Transfer the chicken breasts to the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.

Bake the chicken on middle rack of oven until the thickest part of the breasts reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 30 minutes.

Check to see that chicken is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Perfect Stuffing Technique 🥄
Create a deep pocket in the chicken breast by using a sharp knife, being careful not to cut through the entire breast, which ensures maximum filling and even distribution of spinach and artichoke mixture.
Moisture-Locking Trick 💦
Pat chicken breasts completely dry before stuffing to help the filling adhere better and prevent excess liquid from making the stuffing soggy.
Artichoke Prep Pro 🥬
Finely chop marinated artichoke hearts and thoroughly drain them to prevent excess moisture, which could make the chicken filling watery and compromise the texture.
Cheese Melt Mastery 🧀
Mix ricotta and Parmesan at room temperature to create a smoother, more even filling that melts and integrates perfectly with the spinach and artichokes.
Baking Perfection Hack 🔥
Use a digital meat thermometer and remove chicken from oven when it reaches 160°F internal temperature, as it will continue cooking and reach the safe 165°F while resting.
