Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 4 pieces Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts Choose even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances flavor; feel free to adjust according to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds mild heat; white pepper can be used for a subtler flavor.
For the Filling
  • 1 cup Feta Cheese Brings creaminess and tang; goat cheese offers a different taste.
  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach (chopped) Adds nutrition and vibrant color; kale or arugula are great substitutes.
  • 1/2 cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes (chopped) Contributes sweet and tangy flavor; fresh tomatoes lighten it up.
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced) Provides fresh flavor; garlic powder can be used in smaller quantities if needed.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes (optional) Adds some heat; omit for a milder version.
For Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Offers depth of flavor; fresh garlic can enhance the experience further.
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano Infuses Mediterranean aroma; Italian seasoning works just as well.
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika Gives subtle smokiness; regular paprika is a good alternative.
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Keeps chicken moist and adds flavor; avocado oil is a suitable substitute.
