Ingredients

• 4 pieces Chicken breasts
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves
• 8 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 2 cups Spinach leaves
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 12 Toothpicks

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Finely mince the garlic and chop the fresh parsley. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.

Step 4

Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Using a meat mallet, pound the chicken to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.

Step 5

Season the flattened chicken breasts with paprika, salt, and black pepper on both sides.

Step 6

Spread 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture onto each chicken breast, followed by a layer of spinach leaves.

Step 7

Roll each chicken breast tightly from one end to the other, securing the rolls with toothpicks to hold them in place.

Step 8

Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken rolls on all sides until they are golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet with the seared chicken rolls to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and registers an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rolls rest for 5 minutes before slicing or serving.

Step 11

Carefully remove the toothpicks before serving. Optionally, garnish with additional parsley and serve warm.
