Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

In a bowl, combine broccoli, cheddar cheese, and softened cream cheese. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika.

Place each chicken breast on a flat surface, and carefully cut a pocket into the side of each breast, without cutting all the way through.

Rub each chicken breast with olive oil and evenly coat with the seasoning mixture.

In a separate bowl, combine chopped broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to make the filling.

Stuff each chicken breast with an equal amount of the broccoli cheddar mixture, and fold one side over the other. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.

Season both sides of each chicken breast with salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning.

Create a wide, deep pocket in each chicken breast by slicing horizontally, making sure not to cut all the way through.

Stuff equal amounts of the filling into the pocket created in each chicken breast.

Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a greased baking dish.

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

Once heated, sear the stuffed chicken breasts on both sides for about 2 minutes per side but don’t cook through.

Place all 4 chicken breasts in the skillet and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken breasts are cooked through.
