Broccoli & Cheddar Stuffed Chicken

 

Who doesn't love stuffed chicken breast??  These Cheddar Broccoli Stuffed Chicken Breasts were a huge hit for the whole family, even the picky 2 year old!  I remember when I was little LOVING those frozen stuff chicken breasts but I'm positive they aren't good for you! Here is a quick, healthy solution for you!  They also make wicked leftovers!

Broccoli Cheddar Stuffed Chicken Breasts

 

Ingredients:

4 Chicken Breasts (mine were quite small)

1 1/3 cup shredded cheddar (I threw in some mozzerella I had also)

2 cup frozen broccoli (or steamed fresh)

1/4 tsp both Himalayan Salt & pepper
1/2 tsp each minced garlic, onion powder, and cayenne

3/4 cup cottage cheese



Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 F.  Chop your steamed or thawed broccoli into small pieces and set aside.
Take your chicken breast, place on wax paper and place saran wrap over the chicken.  Flatten with mallet until about 1/2 inch or thinner.
In a bowl, mix together shredded cheese, cottage cheese, spices and broccoli.  Section the mixture into 4 equal part and make each section into a loose ball with your hands.  Place the ball in the center of the chicken breast and roll the chicken breast around the mixture, tucking in the ends so all of your cheesy goodness doesn't escape!  Place the opening side of the chicken down to keep it secured while cooking.
Place all 4 stuffed chicken breasts onto a cooking sprayed, tin foiled baking sheet.  I sprinkled the top of mine with Seasoned Herb Medley or Mrs. Dash but any non salt seasoning would be great!
Place the chicken breasts into the oven for 25-30 minutes.
