Can I use frozen spinach instead of fresh?

Absolutely! Just thaw and squeeze out as much moisture as possible to avoid soggy rolls.

What’s the best way to store leftovers?

Pop them in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll stay tasty for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to keep them juicy.

Can I swap the feta cheese for something else?

Sure thing! Goat cheese or mozzarella make delicious alternatives if feta isn't your favorite.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F.
Place chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/4-inch thickness.
Season chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
In a bowl, combine spinach, feta, Parmesan, cream cheese, and parsley.
Spread the filling over each chicken breast, then roll up tightly and secure with toothpicks.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken rolls on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared rolls to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out excess moisture before mixing.
Don’t overfill the chicken rolls to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.
Toothpicks help keep the rolls tightly closed while searing and baking.
