Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Breast

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400 F.

Step 2

Place the chicken on a clean chopping board and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Start cutting each one lengthwise to create the pockets. Be careful not to cut all the way through.

Step 4

Stuff each chicken breast with 3-4 sprigs of asparagus.

Step 5

Close the pocket with a toothpick. Heat oil in a large and cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Add in the chicken and sear it until nicely golden brown, about 3-5 minutes per side.

Step 7

Bake the chicken for 15-20 minutes, or until it is cooked through and no longer pink in the inside. Enjoy!
