22 Stuffed Chicken Recipes That Are (Literally!) Full Of Flavor
Sides INSIDE your main? Genius.
Here's a saying we likely all know, “Chicken: It’s what’s for dinner." Most weeknights, it holds true—but chicken can get a little repetitive if you're not careful. To avoid falling into a rut, you've got to get creative, by stuffing chicken with all your favorite fillings. It's the ultimate low-effort meal, since you get an entree and sides all in one bite. So next time you cook up a chicken breast, try stuffing it with your favorite flavors—Caprese, fajita, Cuban, and more. It’ll be extra tasty and, best of all, impressive. These 22 stuffed chicken recipes guarantee you'll never have a boring chicken dinner again.
We know it can be tricky figuring out what veggies and greens go with a particular dish, and how much to make for your dinner. Avoid the conundrum and stuff all the veggies you want right inside your chicken. Every bite will be perfectly balanced and individual portion-sized. So convenient! We love how colorful they look too—our primavera stuffed chicken, Greek stuffed chicken, and antipasto stuffed chicken recipes will make veritable rainbows on your plate. And don’t worry about all this vegetable talk, we’ve got lots of cheese in there too. While you maybe shouldn’t just eat party appetizers like spinach and artichoke dip, jalapeño poppers, or Buffalo dip for dinner, stuff it into chicken and you totally can. Just maybe serve alongside a salad 😉.
Bonus of these recipes? Tons of them are inherently low-carb. You can get all the flavor you love from gluten-filled recipes like lasagna, fajitas, a Cuban sandwich, and more, tucked inside a high-protein package.
