Ingredients:
– 2 chicken breasts
– 1 cup broccoli florets, steamed
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Olive oil for cooking
Directions:
1. First things first, set your oven to preheat at 375°F (190°C). We want it nice and toasty when the chicken goes in!
2. Take a mixing bowl and bring together those mouthwatering steamed broccoli florets, creamy cheddar cheese, soft cream cheese, savory garlic powder, and just the right amount of salt and pepper.
3. Now, take a deep breath and gently create a pocket in each chicken breast. Stuff as much of that cheesy broccoli goodness into each one as you can—you want the flavors to burst in every bite!
4. Grab your skillet and heat up some olive oil over medium heat. Sear each chicken breast for around 3-4 minutes on both sides. You’ll know you’ve got it right when they have a lovely golden hue.
5. Once seared to perfection, place the chicken into a baking dish. Pop it into that preheated oven and let it bake for 25-30 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the chicken is cooked all the way through.
6. Finally, give the chicken a few moments to rest. Then, they’re ready to be devoured! Enjoy the savory blend of juicy chicken with a cheesy, broccoli-filled surprise inside.
