Ingredients:

  • 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup of almond flour
  • 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese, grated
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1/4 cup of butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 1/2 pound of mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 pound of spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup of chopped fresh chives
  • 1/2 cup of heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup of dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup of chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup of crumbled bacon

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Breasts

Using a sharp knife, make a deep pocket in each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through. Season the inside of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Make the Stuffing

In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and olive oil. Add the mushrooms and spinach and cook until the mushrooms are tender and the spinach is wilted. Stir in the parsley, chives, and crumbled bacon.

Step 3: Stuff the Chicken Breasts

Spoon the mushroom mixture into the pockets of the chicken breasts. Secure the stuffing with toothpicks or kitchen twine.

Step 4: Bake the Chicken Breasts

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the stuffing is golden brown.

Step 5: Make the Sauce

In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the heavy cream, white wine, chicken broth, and lemon juice to a simmer. Stir until the sauce has thickened slightly.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!

Remove the toothpicks or kitchen twine from the chicken breasts. Drizzle the sauce over the chicken breasts and serve immediately. Garnish with additional parsley and chives, if desired.
