Ingredients
- – 4 chicken breasts (about 1 kg)
- – 1 tablespoon olive oil (15 ml)
- – 1 teaspoon paprika (5 g)
- – 1 teaspoon salt, divided (5 g)
- – 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (2.5 g)
- – 1/2 teaspoon onion powder (2.5 g)
- – 4 ounces beef cream cheese, softened (113 g)
- – 1/4 cup grated Parmesan (25 g)
- – 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (30 ml)
- – 1 1/2 cups chopped fresh spinach (225 g)
- – 2 teaspoons minced garlic (10 ml)
- – 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, more or less to taste (2.5 g)
Instructions
- Position the chicken breasts on a chopping board and carefully create a slit on the side of each one using a sharp knife.
- Coat both sides of the chicken with olive oil.
- In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, half of the salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Evenly distribute this spice blend over the chicken.
- In another small bowl, thoroughly mix the beef cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, fresh spinach, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and the rest of the salt.
- Fill each chicken breast with the prepared stuffing.
- Arrange the stuffed chicken breasts in a greased air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer. If the air fryer is small, cook them in batches. Keep the cooked pieces warm in a low oven, covered with foil, as you prepare the next batch.
- Set the air fryer to 375°F and cook for 15-20 minutes, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 165°F in the thickest part of the chicken.
Notes
- Use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a healthier stuffing. Add sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers for extra flavor. Sprinkle cayenne pepper or hot sauce for a spicier kick.
