Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant.
  3. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
  4. In a bowl, mix the cooked spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Cut a pocket into each chicken breast and stuff with the spinach mixture, securing with toothpicks if necessary.
  6. In the same skillet, sear each stuffed chicken breast on both sides until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  7. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until cooked through.
  8. Meanwhile, prepare the sun-dried tomato cream sauce by combining heavy cream and Italian herbs in a saucepan, bringing to a simmer.
  9. Reduce the heat and stir in any remaining sun-dried tomatoes, cooking for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  10. Once the chicken is done, remove toothpicks and serve topped with the sun-dried tomato cream sauce. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: For an extra flavor boost, marinate the chicken breasts in olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs for 30 minutes before stuffing.

To keep the chicken breasts juicy, be careful not to overcook them. Using a meat thermometer can help ensure they reach the perfect internal temperature of 165°F.

If you prefer a lighter option, you can substitute the cream with Greek yogurt for a tangy twist. Additionally, feel free to use fresh spinach instead of frozen; just be sure to sauté it first to reduce moisture.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to enjoy this delicious meal again!

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Juice and zest of 2 limes
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, diced
  • 1 small tomato, diced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine shrimp, olive oil, lime juice, lime zest, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat and let marinate for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are pink and opaque.
  3. While the shrimp cook, prepare the avocado salsa by mixing diced avocado, red onion, tomato, lime juice, and salt in a separate bowl. Set aside.
  4. Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
  5. Assemble the tacos by placing a few shrimp in each tortilla and topping with a generous spoonful of avocado salsa. Serve immediately.

Notes

Tip: For added flavor, grill the shrimp instead of pan-frying, which gives them a lovely char.

For extra heat, consider adding sliced jalapeños to the avocado salsa or topping your tacos with a spicy aioli. If you’re short on time, you can substitute frozen shrimp that’s been thawed for fresh.

Leftover shrimp can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. These tacos also make a great filling for burritos, or you can serve the shrimp over a salad for a lighter option!
