Cajun Stuffed Chicken Breast



Ingredients:
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 oz pepper jack cheese, shredded
1 c fresh spinach, 
3 tbsp coconut oil
1 ½ tbsp Cajun seasoning
1 tbsp breadcrumbs
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Lots of toothpicks


Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Flatten the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness.
Saute spinach with 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil just until it begins to wilt. Make sure spinach measures out about 1 cup after it is sautéed.

In a medium bowl, combine the pepper jack cheese, spinach, salt and pepper.
Combine the Cajun seasoning and breadcrumbs together in a small bowl.
Spoon about 1/4 c of the spinach mixture onto each chicken breast. Roll each chicken breast tightly and fasten the seams with several toothpicks.
Brush each chicken breast with the coconut oil. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning mixture evenly over all. Sprinkle any remaining spinach and cheese on top of chicken.
Place the chicken seam-side up onto a tin foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Remove the toothpicks before serving.
