Ingredients

2

2 servings

  • ¼ cup fresh spinach
  • ¼ cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • ¼ cup cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Cook the spinach on a medium heat in a splash of oil for 3-5 minutes until it is slightly wilted.
  • Stir in the ricotta and cook for a further 30-60 seconds. Allow to cool.
  • Cut slits into the chicken breasts about 1cm (½ inch) apart but don’t cut all the way through - about 75% of the way down is what you should aim for.
  • Stuff all of the spinach and ricotta mixture into the slits.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Grate the cheddar and sprinkle it generously on top.
  • Shake the ground paprika over the chicken to add some colour and flavour.
  • Bake in the centre of a pre-heated oven for 20-25 minutes 400°F (200°C) until the cheese has melted and the juices are clear.
  • Enjoy!
