Description

Spinach and artichoke stuffed chicken breast is grilled and topped with a creamy, Parmesan Greek yogurt sauce! It’s a healthy, low carb dinner that’s perfect for a weeknight!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CHICKEN:
  • 3 Tablespoons Plain, Non-fat Greek Yogurt
  • ¼ teaspoons Garlic, Minced
  • 2 Tablespoons Liquid From Jarred Artichokes Packed In Water
  • Salt And Pepper
  • 1 pound Chicken Breast
  • 2 cups Spinach, Or As Needed
  • 8  Artichoke Hearts, Packed In Water
  • Italian Seasoning
  • FOR THE SAUCE:
  • ½ cups Plain, Non-fat Greek Yogurt
  • 4  Artichoke Hearts
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic, Minced
  • ⅓ cups Shredded Parmesan And Romano Cheese Blend (See Note)
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Preparation

In a large container, whisk together Greek yogurt, garlic, artichoke liquid, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the chicken into the container and spoon the mixture over top until chicken is covered. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Once marinated, preheat grill to medium-high heat.

Wipe off any thick layers of yogurt from the chicken and slice a large pocket into the side of each breast, making sure not to cut all the way through. Place as many spinach leaves as you can inside (I did 4 per breast) and then add 2 artichoke hearts. Seal with toothpicks to keep the filling inside. Sprinkle with a pinch of Italian seasoning.

Grill until no longer pink inside, about 6–7 minutes per side, flipping once. One cooked, place onto a plate and cover to let rest for 10 minutes.

While the chicken rests, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small food processor (mine is 3 cups) and blend until smooth and creamy, scraping the sides down as necessary. Serve the sauce over the chicken and devour.

Note: I’ve also tried this with just plain Parmesan. It’s still good, but the Romano really adds something!
