Stuffed Tuscan Garlic Chicken are tender and juicy chicken stuffed with mozzarella cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach that gets baked in a creamy garlic sauce. This meal will blow the family away!
I have finally jumped on the stuffed chicken boat. It is mega popular right now and oh boy, why did I wait so long!? I took the ultra mega popular Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken that is on my site and made something incredible. A thick chicken breast gets coated in italian seasoning and stuffed to the brim with mozzarella cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach. It takes no time at all before it is in the oven and on the dinner table for the family to devour.
The chicken gets pan seared before it enters the oven. The cheese just starts to melt and is so ooey gooey delicious. I went back and forth trying to decide if I should bake it in a creamy sauce because the chicken is so delicious on its own. But I made the decision to bake it in a creamy garlic sauce and it was the BEST decision!
As soon as this chicken comes out of the oven you can just see the melty cheese just oozing out of the sides. And the smell of the sun dried tomatoes and seasonings is incredible. My family could not eat this meal fast enough!
This is truly a restaurant quality meal that you can make right at home. You are going to impress even yourself on this one! This is hands down one of the best things that has happened to this blog. Your family is going to go crazy for this recipe just like we did!

THIS chicken recipe is absolutely FABULOUS! I used one huge breast and the same amount of sauce that was intended for three chicken breasts……it was the prefect amount. I would suggest for three or more breasts, that you should double or triple the sauce recipe. It was an easy-to-make dish and clean-up was minimal.
You use three chicken breasts but have four servings? Is this a typo?
Sounds delicious and I will make it for my volunteers on Saturday!
The chicken breasts are large and stuffed and can be cut into half if needed. You can always add another chicken breast so each person has one piece each. Your volunteers are going to love you even more;)! XOXO

Why did my sauce look whiteish where yours looks reddish?
Hi, just wondering if the chicken broth should be cold when whisking it with the cream. Thank you
