Stuffing:
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes
2 Tbsp pine nuts, slightly toasted
1 cup frozen spinach, chopped
1/2 cup shredded Italian cheese blend
1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1 Tbsp flat leaf parsley, chopped
4 boneless chicken breasts, with skin
Salt to taste
Black ground pepper to taste
Pre-heat oven to 400ºF.
Combine all the stuffing ingredients together in a bowl; set aside.
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. With a mallet or the palm of your hand, slightly flatten out breasts.
Shape a handful of stuffing into a ball and place in center of each chicken breast.
Wrap the chicken breast around the stuffing, starting with one side. Roll the breast, tucking the opposite side underneath. Season top of chicken breast with salt and pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked and juices run clear. Serve immediately.
