How to make Low Carb Stuffed Chicken
You’ll need about one quarter of the total amount of my Spinach Artichoke Dip to stuff the chicken with.
The recipe makes a total of four cups of dip, but you only need around one cup for stuffing the chicken so you can cut back the amount you need accordingly.
Stuff each breast with up to 1/4th of a cup of the spinach dip mixture and then secure the sides of the chicken with wooden toothpicks then season with salt and pepper.
Brown the chicken on for 6 minutes per side in a hot skillet with plenty oil, and then bake in a hot oven at 375F for 20- 25 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165°F). Remove toothpicks before serving.
