Recipe Introduction
Asparagus stuffed chicken breast is easier than you think! Just season some chicken, stuff it with a little cheese and fresh asparagus, and bake! This healthy dinner is ready in about 50 minutes.
List of Ingredients
4 chicken breasts
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup grated mozzarella
16 spears asparagus
4 slices bacon
Recipe
Preheat oven to 375° degrees. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray.
Place the chicken on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to butterfly the chicken. Drizzle the outside of the chicken with olive oil. Mix together the garlic powder, paprika, and salt and sprinkle over each chicken breast.
Open up the chicken breasts and lay 1/4 cup of mozzarella on the bottom portion of each breast. Top the cheese with 3-4 spears of asparagus, depending on how large each breast is. Bring the top of the chicken up over the asparagus to close.
Cut each slice of bacon in half. Lay 2 half pieces over each breast, tucking the ends under the breast.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165° degrees and juices run clear. Serve immediately.
