Broccoli and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts

The whole family will love these broccoli and cheese stuffed chicken breasts. Seared then baked, each stuffed chicken breast stays moist on the inside with a nice crisp on the outside. Plus, they’re ready in under an hour, and packed with protein!
These stuffed chicken breasts were inspired by a frozen stuffed chicken my mom used to buy when we were kids. I remember they were pre-baked and pre-packaged and all you had to do was thaw and bake them! They would ooze with cheese and were so tasty. These are a homemade, better-for-you variation of that frozen dinner. I hope you love this easy dinner as much as my family and I do.
If you’re in a dinner rut, mix things up with this protein-packed stuffed chicken breast recipe. Each breast is coated with a dry rub, filled with a creamy and cheesy broccoli filling, and cooked to golden perfection.
Whenever I make our stuffed chicken recipes, I’m always in awe of how simple they are to make yet how fancy they look. Stuffed chicken breasts are impressive enough for a celebratory meal and simple enough for a weeknight dinner. No matter the occasion, these chicken breasts are packed with flavor and cheesy goodness everyone enjoys!
