This low-carb Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken is a keto 30-minute dinner dream! It’s super juicy and mega flavorful–Even better, it all cooks in one pan for easy cleanup!

I have a big love for stuffed chicken, if you can’t tell from other recipes on the blog. It really gives a big ‘oomph’ to the common chicken breast around here!

At this point, I’m just thinking of other dishes I love and considering if it would work stuffed inside a chicken. Luckily for all of us, spinach and artichoke dip popped into my brain, and I immediately suspected it would result in an unbelievably juicy, tender dish!

The recipe is simple and delicious, two things I love most. Mix up the creamy filling, stuff it into a breast, rub the breasts with an amazing herby blend, and bake.

This one-pan, low-carb meal is the perfect choice for your keto dinner! It’s quick enough for a weeknight (done in under 30 minutes) and looks so beautiful that company will think you worked all day on the meal. Do everyone in the family a favor and make this Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken tonight!

Ingredients for Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken

As always, this is a quick overview of the ingredients you will need. To get the complete recipe and instructions just keep scrolling.

Chicken Breast: small to medium size breast work best for this recipe.
Canned Artichokes: if you can only find marinated artichokes rinse them off before chopping, just so the flavor is not overwhelming.
Spinach: I use freshly chopped spinach for this recipe, but you can use frozen as long as you remove all moisture.
Parmesan, Mozzarella and Cream Cheese: this trio creates the perfect flavor combination.
Spices: Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

How do you make Keto Stuffed Chicken?

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
In a small bowl combine the chopped artichokes, chopped spinach, parmesan, mozzarella and softened cream cheese, set aside.
Slice each chicken breast lengthwise so that the breast folds open (be sure not to slice all the way through)
Spread the spinach artichoke mixture on one side of the chicken and fold the other side over, secure with a toothpick if needed.
Lightly sprinkle the seasoning mixture on each side.
Place in a greased baking dish. Bake 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

How do you butterfly chicken breast?

Place a chicken breast on a cutting board and using a very sharp knife cut through the chicken breast horizontally about 3/4 of the way though. Fold open the top half of the chicken so that it opens like a butterfly.

Each side of the chicken breast should be equally thin so it cooks evenly. This is an excellent method to stuff chicken with any of your favorite fillings.

Do I need to beat the chicken breast before cutting?

If you feel like your chicken breast is too thick or not evenly cut, so one side is significantly thicker than the other, you can pound it flat. Place the cut between plastic wrap and lightly pound until it is a more uniform size.
