Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
- ½ yellow onion, chopped
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 2 tablespoons Cajun-style seasoning
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Squeeze excess water out of the thawed spinach. In a large bowl, mix the spinach with the chopped onion and cottage cheese, then set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with Cajun-style seasoning. Place 1/4 of the cheese and spinach mixture in the center of each breast and fold them in half. Secure with toothpicks.
- Arrange the stuffed chicken breasts in a lightly greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the chicken and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
Notes
- Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to prevent excess moisture.
- Adjust Cajun seasoning to taste.
- Use toothpicks to secure the stuffed chicken breasts for even cooking.
