- ½ teaspoon Black pepper
Topping (optional)
- 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese grated
- 3 tablespoons Cheddar cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F degrees.
- Using a sharp knife, make slits in the chicken breasts width-wise that are about ¾ inches apart, making sure not to cut all the way down through the bottom of the chicken breast.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- In a bowl mix the spinach and ricotta cheese together.
- Season with nutmeg.
- Stuff the spinach mixture in the slits of the chicken, filling it with the volume you want (I tend to over stuff things)

- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
