Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, grated Parmesan, and mayonnaise until smooth. Stir in chopped fresh spinach, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt to taste and set aside.
- Butterfly or pound chicken breasts to about ½-inch thickness. Season both sides with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
- Divide filling into four portions. Spread one portion on one half of each chicken breast, then roll the chicken around the filling and secure with kitchen twine or toothpicks.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken rolls for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Transfer skillet to preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Remove skillet from oven, tent chicken with foil, and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
