Ingredients:

Serving

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (depends on the size)
1 (10 oz) package frozen spinach, thawed & drained
1/2 cup reduced-fat feta cheese (to taste)
1 garlic clove
1 tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper
toothpick

Directions:

Start by washing chicken breasts.
Carefully slit pockets into the breasts so they can be filled with the spinach mixture.
Warm the olive oil in skillet.
Press the clove of garlic and saute.
Pat the thawed spinach off and saute in the oil and garlic mixture. (warm the spinach until it is limp and warmed through).
Mix the spinach mixture with the feta cheese and set aside.
Cook and lightly brown the chicken breasts.
Take the spinach/feta mixture and stuff into the chicken pockets. *Be careful not to puncture through the breast*.
Close the pocket with the toothpicks and continue to brown the breasts until desired browness.
If any of the spinach mix falls out of the breasts, I usually push it to the side of the pan and let it cook a bit more and then top the breasts when serving.
These breasts taste great served with rice and steamed veggies!
