This recipe is a two-in-one: I often have a real appetite for mozzarella and spinach stuffed chicken breasts from the Air Fryer, while also craving baked potatoes. Why not both?
This easy dinner turned out so great! You’d expect the chicken to become too dry, but it was absolutely perfect: not too dry, a bit crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
Fill the chicken breast with a delicious combination of mozzarella and spinach. Complete the dish with a baked potato and some broccoli. 👨🍳
Your dinner is ready in 20 minutes, since the chicken breast and the potato go together in the Air Fryer (yes, in our small Philips Viva Air Fryer).
If you are not a big eater, change the amount of baked potatoes to one per person (instead of two).
So let’s get started with your healthy dinner for tonight! Leave a comment or a review if you tried this recipe. 💚
Mozzarella Chicken Breast With Baked Potato
Delicious Air Fryer chicken breast, filled with mozzarella and spinach and a baked potato with broccoli on the side.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- ½ mozzarella ball, sliced
- 3-4 sun dried tomato slices, cut in half
- 50 g spinach, cooked or fresh
- 20 g tomato paste
- 2 potatoes
Requirements
- Air Fryer
- Baking paper or oven plate
- 10 wooden toothpicks
Instructions
- Cut the chicken breasts in half, lengthwise, without cutting all the way through.
- Cover the bottom half with 10 grams of tomato paste inside each breast.
- Spread half of the spinach evenly per chicken breast on top of the tomato paste. Place half of the mozzarella slices on the bottom half per breast. Finally, put half of the sun dried tomatoes as the final ‘layer’ per chicken breast.
- Close the breasts at the edges with the toothpicks so the filling cannot fall out. Place in the Air Fryer for 20 minutes at 180 ℃ with the potatoes.
- Carefully twist and turn the toothpicks out of the stuffed chicken breasts.
- Enjoy your homemade Air Fryer mozzarella-stuffed chicken breast!
Notes
- Add some garlic sauce to go with the baked potatoes after they are done.
- Add your preferred vegetables on the side. We went for broccoli, as it is our typical go-to veggie.
