- Infused Oil:
- 1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
- Filling:
- 5 cups ricotta cheese
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 6 eggs, beaten
- 3 cups sliced baby portabella mushrooms
- 2 (6.5 ounce) jars marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- 20 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons ground black pepper
- 4 teaspoons onion powder
- 4 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 40 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- Place 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon thyme together in a small bowl or bottle; pour olive oil into bowl. Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate until oil is infused, at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease enough baking dishes to fit all of the stuffed chicken breasts in a single layer.
- Stir ricotta cheese, feta cheese, eggs, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, garlic, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, basil, cumin, and 1 tablespoon thyme together in a large bowl.
- Place chicken breasts on a flat work surface. Use a paring or boning knife to cut from one side of a chicken breast through the middle of the breast to within 1/2-inch of the other side, creating a deep pocket. Spoon mushroom and artichoke mixture into chicken until pocket is full; use toothpick to close and secure the pocket. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts and filling. Place stuffed chicken in prepared baking dishes.
- Brush each chicken breast with about 1 teaspoon infused olive oil and sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Cool slightly before serving, about 5 minutes.
