Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Wash the chicken breasts and dry them thoroughly with a paper towel.
2
Using a sharp knife, cut a slit into each fillet to create a pocket. Be careful not to cut all the way through the meat.
3
Lightly salt the inside of the pocket, then fill it with spinach leaves, slices of mozzarella, chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a little chopped garlic.
4
Secure the edges of the meat with toothpicks so the filling doesn't leak out during baking. Season the outside of the fillet with salt, pepper and oregano.
5
Heat oil in a pan and sear the fillets over high heat (about 2 minutes on each side) until they get a golden-brown crust.
6
Transfer the fillets to a baking dish and bake them in the oven for another 10–12 minutes, until the meat is completely cooked and the cheese has melted. Let rest for 2 minutes before serving.
