Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach thawed
  • 5 ounces feta cheese crumbled
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (see note)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Olive or avocado oil spray

Instructions

  1. Place thawed spinach between two paper towels, wrap them tightly and press to remove extra water, then unwrap the spinach.
  2. Mix the spinach, crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, and minced garlic in a medium bowl until evenly combined.

  4. Stuff the cheese and spinach mixture into each chicken pocket and season the exterior with salt and pepper.
  5. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil, arrange the stuffed chicken breasts inside, then air fry at 350 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
  6. Take the chicken out and serve it hot with your favorite side dishes.
