I’m trying something new you guys! Today on the blog it’s Baked Spinach Provolone Chicken Breasts! This meal comes together so easy and cooks in about 30 minutes making it perfect for a busy night after work. Are you drooling yet?! 🙂

These Baked Spinach Provolone Chicken Breasts are Low Carb and so delicious. So simple to make, just butterfly the chicken breasts, add spinach, and provolone cheese. Then just wrap it and bake it! | Tastefulventure.com

I gotta tell you, I’ve never really tried stuffing meat before. I’ve ordered stuff like this in restaurants, because it seems so fancy, and it’s always so delicious! So I figured, hey why not go outside my bubble a little and try this recipe myself!

Also, I’ve been missing my date nights with my bf. He works on a cruise ship as a musician and he’s been gone for like 4 months now, ugh!

The first 3 months I was doing ok, just keeping busy with work, creating new recipes for you guys, trying out a new Yoga class, taking some Salsa lessons, and driving my son around to various activities.

I figure if I stay busy enough it’ll take my mind off of Cary being gone. Well it only works temporarily. I think this week I hit a wall. Just feeling blah and missing him like crazy.

So I decided to make a meal that felt like a ‘date night’ meal I could have at home. Except my meal was shared with my son, who by the way makes a great date. I do love our mother and son dinner dates! 🙂

This was really simple to make too! So if you’re looking to have a ‘date night’ dinner at home, or just a great meal with your family, give this a try!

First I just sautéed some baby spinach and garlic for a few minutes.

Then carefully butterfly the chicken breasts making sure you don’t cut all the way through.

Then just place a slice of Provolone Cheese over each piece of chicken and top with the spinach.

Gently fold the chicken over in half and make sure everything is stuffed nicely inside.

        I also made this with my own little ‘twists’ a couple of times! The first time I just added some halved grape-tomatoes to the spinach (do not sauté the tomatoes…add when stuffing the chicken breasts and then bake as usual). Gives it a somewhat ‘bruschetta’ taste. Delicious!! The second time, I added basil and some other Italian seasonings when I sautéed the spinach as well as scallions, stuffed the chicken breasts and then battered them twice using Italian bread crumbs topped them with mozzarella and baked as per usual. NOTHING but scrumptious feedback from the family!

        Ps. I’ve also thought of adding just a bit of ginger root to see what kind of ‘twist’ that might add!

    So I made three: One left alone and made as per recipe instructions, one with grated parmesan cheese sprinkled on top (added when there was ten minutes left), and the third with parmean and some balsamic glaze. All variants were great, and I’ll be making it again (might add some balsamic to the spinach mix next time and see what happens).

    • Charlie T says

      July 30, 2016 at 12:18 am

      Defrosting the chicken, prepping and refreezing is not something I would recommend, due to the bacteria developing once thawed and prepped. Even if thawed in the refrigerator, I would be very wary of using that process, as the risks involved seem a bit to high in regards to the time saved. A safer option would be to buy chicken that is not frozen, prep, then freeze that.

      That said, this is a great recipe, and very delicious. It leaves a lot of room to play around with it, but is quite nice as is.

    With a few little add ons this was DELICIOUS. I used 2 pc of thin sliced chicken breast instead of a wbole breast butterflied cut. I am hispanic so seasoning is everything. I seasoned the chicken with a little bit salt, onion and garlic powder. Once everything was layered, I sprinkled some black pepper and paprika. Luckily, I only made one, otherwise……. ,? ?

    “My Mom and I decided to make some chicken and dumplings. Your recipe stuck out to us as we were surfing the web. We followed your instructions exactly. The outcome was DELICIOUS! I had a newly purchased box of Bisquick flour which helps, I think. In addition, we grow fresh herbs and used our garden parsley!

    I really enjoyed going through your blog and I am looking forward to trying more of your recipes.

    I’ve been gluten free for health reasons for over 7 years. It has made a huge difference in my life. I had lots of hip pain and bloating and YUCK… A few months after I started really working at it (when I was done crying about pizza crust) I felt an amazing difference.

        I’d LOVE to see that particular recipe! I’m already planning on adding mushrooms and contemplated using Swiss rather than provolone. But then I saw someone ask about subbing the cheese and you adamantly suggested that you thought provolone worked best, so I stuck with it. But PLEASE! Email me or post the chicken stuffed with mushrooms and Swiss that you mentioned above! It sounds wonderful! lacy521@gmail.com

I’m looking at all the fun twists people have mentioned in the comments and I’m definitely going to make this again- and soon!

    My husband and I did not enjoy this recipe at all, which is really disappointing because it looked SO absolutely delicious but turned out really tasteless 🙁 I even used more spices, garlic, and a dash more salt, but still to no avail. We are currently counting heavily on sun dried tomato pesto to save our taste buds while not letting the food go to waste.

    My husband absolutely loved this recipe. In fact, I’m making it for the third time. I would like to drop by and say how awesome this recipe is. The first try, since I didn’t have provolone, I used mozarella cheese instead and it turned out great. I bought provolone the second time and it was equally yummy. So easy yet so delish.

    I found this recipe on Pinterest and bought both Provolone and Havarti to try it out! Full disclosure: I’m a vegetarian who enjoys cooking meat, but don’t care for it, so never taste it (born and raised veg). I rely on the feedback of others.

    I meant to look through comments because it helps to tweak the recipe before you try it, but then had an interruption and forgot! I came back and read them after dinner and thought it was interesting to note the comments about seasoning. I made it for two adults and a 16-year old. One adult thought it was good, the other went to the cupboard and got the salt. The 16-year old boy just scarfed it down!

    So it seems to be pretty split. If you like salt and other seasonings, you might want to salt the filleted chicken breast before adding cheese and spinach.

    The consensus all around was that it would have benefited from more cheese so next time perhaps I’ll do two slices (perhaps the slices I bought were thin) and just a bit of seasoning. It was also proposed to add the second slice of cheese to the top (as the picture seemed to suggest).

    I was puzzled by one thing. I cooked it for the suggested 30 minutes at 425 degrees but at the end of the time, it was still very pale looking (the meat-eaters thought it looked anemic), not browned. I added 5 minutes to the timer, then broiled it for another two. I think I may have dried it out too much. Suggestions? We’re in Colorado so elevation, perhaps?

    I will definitely make it again! Sorry so wordy!

      March 12, 2018 at 9:53 am

      Hey Marla, Depending on how thin your Chicken Breasts are will depend on cook time. Check for doneness after 10-15 minutes and eyeball it from there. I’m not sure if you will get the same results with the cheese and spinach on top of the chicken though, I’m thinking the cheese may get burnt. If you do try this method, let me know the results!
