Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with olive oil.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut a pocket into each one. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
-
Stuff each chicken breast with the garlic and breadcrumb mixture, distributing it evenly among the four breasts.
-
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, sear the stuffed chicken breasts for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
-
Transfer the seared chicken breasts to the prepared baking dish.
-
Cover each chicken breast with the shredded mozzarella cheese, making sure to coat them generously.
-
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
-
To serve, garnish the Cheesy Garlicky Chicken with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
