Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Cheese and Vegetables

  • 8 oz Boursin cheese (any flavor)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

Other

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Sauté Garlic and Spinach: In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then add the fresh spinach and cook until it wilts, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add Boursin Cheese: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the Boursin cheese until it melts completely, creating a creamy mixture with the spinach and garlic.
  4. Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts evenly in the greased baking dish. Pour the creamy spinach and Boursin mixture evenly over the chicken to coat it well.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly over the chicken and then top with grated Parmesan cheese for a crispy, cheesy crust.
  6. Bake: Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the top is golden brown.
  7. Rest and Serve: Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after baking to allow juices to redistribute before serving.

Notes

  • Use any flavor of Boursin cheese according to your preference, such as garlic and herb for extra flavor.
  • Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • You can substitute fresh spinach with frozen spinach if fresh is not available; just thaw and squeeze out excess water before using.
  • For a gluten-free option, replace panko breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed vegetables, rice, or a simple salad.
