Prepare the chicken
Slice a deep pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut through. Season inside and out with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
Make the creamy filling
In a bowl, mix cream cheese, mozzarella, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic until well combined.
Stuff the chicken
Spoon the filling evenly into each chicken breast. Secure with toothpicks if needed.
Sear for flavor
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken for 3–4 minutes per side until golden.
Bake to perfection
Transfer the skillet to a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven and bake for 18–22 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
Rest and serve
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to keep it juicy.

Pro Tip: Always rest stuffed chicken—this keeps the creamy spinach filling from spilling out.
