Stuffed Chicken with Lemon Kissed Greens

Stuffed Chicken with Lemon Kissed Greens

I recently talked about the importance of eating the rainbow—and no, I don’t mean Skittles! This recipe is a perfect example of how colorful foods are packed with essential nutrients, and it’s absolutely delicious. Say hello to a satisfying meal that’s as vibrant in flavor as it is easy to prepare!

This Pepper Pouch Chicken with Lemon Kissed Greens combines the smoky sweetness of roasted red peppers, crunchy almonds, and tender chicken in a beautifully stuffed dish that feels special yet simple enough for any night of the week. Paired with fresh greens kissed with lemon, this dish brings brightness and nourishment to your table. For even more color, try adding tomatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes, yellow squash, blueberries, or purple cabbage to watch your plate burst with flavor and colorful visual appeal.

Think of it as your edible art project—I promise, you won’t be disappointed!

Ingredients

  • 1 Medium Roasted Red Pepper
  • 2 tbsps Almonds
  • 1 Garlic (clove, minced)
  • Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
  • 0.75 lbs Chicken Breast (boneless, skinless)
  • 2 tbsps Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
  • 2 cups Mixed Greens
  • ¼ Lemon (juiced)

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a blender, add the roasted red peppers, almonds, garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend until still a bit chunky (you can choose your desired texture).
  3. Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create a pocket in each chicken breast. Do not cut all the way through. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper.
  4. Stuff the chicken breasts with the roasted red pepper mixture. Place the chicken onto the baking sheet and brush with half of the olive oil. Cook in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the chicken has cooked through.
  5. Meanwhile, in a bowl toss together the mixed greens with the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  6. Divide the chicken breast and mixed greens evenly between plates. Enjoy!
