Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine diced pears, crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, chopped spinach, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Slice open each chicken breast on one side to create a pocket and stuff each generously with the pear mixture.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear each stuffed chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Let rest for a few minutes before serving.
