Whip up these tasty Chicken Roll-Ups tonight for a quick, delicious meal that will satisfy everyone at the table!

1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). This should take about 10 minutes.

2

While the oven is heating, take the chicken breasts and carefully pound them to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. This helps them cook evenly and roll up nicely.

3

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, spinach, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined.

4

Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture over each chicken breast, leaving about 1 inch of space around the edges.

5

Starting from one end, carefully roll the chicken breast tightly around the filling, and secure it with toothpicks if necessary to keep it from unrolling.

6

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken roll-ups and sear on all sides for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown.

7

Once seared, transfer the chicken roll-ups to a baking dish and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (75 degrees Celsius).

8

Remove the chicken roll-ups from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute for a moist, flavorful bite.

• Add some sun-dried tomatoes into the cheese filling for a tangy kick.
• Top the roll-ups with a homemade tomato sauce before baking for added flavor.
• Experiment with different herbs and spices in the cheese mixture for a unique twist.

• Ensure the chicken is pounded evenly for consistent cooking.
• Use toothpicks to secure the roll-ups if needed, but remember to remove them before serving.
• Let the roll-ups rest before slicing for cleaner cuts and to keep the filling intact.
