Air Fryer Stuffed Chicken The filling of this 20-minute air fryer souffles chicken is a smooth blend of cream cheese, garlic, and spinach. This meal is quick to prepare and tastes like it was from a restaurant.
Without a doubt, chicken is the preferred protein in our home. It is widely accessible, adored by all, and incredibly versatile.
We adore air-fried chicken so much that I had no doubts that stuffed chicken would be even better!
We used a fast mixture of cream cheese, spinach, and a few other things to stuff these chicken breasts. In essence, it’s spinach dip inside a chicken!
The nicest thing about air fryers is that they cook chicken uniformly while retaining its juicy, succulent texture.
Recipe By: Karly Campbell
Ingredients:
- Four pieces of chicken breasts
- One tablespoon of olive oil
- One tsp of paprika
- One teaspoon, divided into halves
- half a teaspoon of powdered garlic
- Half a teaspoon of powdered onion
- Four ounces of softened cream cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped Parmesan
- Mayonnaise, two tablespoons
- one and a half cups of freshly chopped spinach
- two tsp finely chopped garlic
- ½ teaspoon, or to taste, red pepper flakes
Directions:
- After arranging the chicken breasts on a chopping board, cut a pocket into each breast’s side using a sharp knife.
- Coat the chicken in oil on both sides.
- In a small bowl, add the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir to mix. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides equally.
- In a small mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, Parmesan, mayonnaise, spinach, garlic, red pepper flakes, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir to thoroughly blend.
- Stuff each chicken breast with the mixture.
- In an air fryer basket that has been oiled, arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer. Depending on how big your air fryer is, you might have to work in batches. While the next batch cooks, keep the cooked chicken wrapped in foil in a low oven.
- Air fry at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165 degrees in the thickest portion of the chicken
