  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup spinach, chopped (fresh or frozen)
– 1 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– ½ teaspoon garlic powder
– ½ teaspoon onion powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Cooking spray


Instructions

Creating Air Fryer Stuffed Chicken Breasts is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
2. Prepare the Chicken: Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into each chicken breast. Be sure not to cut all the way through.
3. Stuff the Chicken: Generously fill each chicken breast pocket with the cheese and spinach mixture. Use toothpicks to secure the opening if necessary.
4. Season the Chicken: Rub olive oil over the chicken breasts and season with additional salt and pepper as desired.
5. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 360°F (182°C) for about 5 minutes.
6. Cook the Chicken: Place the stuffed chicken breasts in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
7. Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is fully cooked. If needed, add a few more minutes to the cooking time.
8. Rest the Chicken: Once done, remove the chicken from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Slice the chicken and serve it with your favorite sides.
