Blue Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Chicken

Serves: 3

I’ve been wanting to make something with blue cheese for a while and finely came up with this savory blue cheese with spinach stuffed chicken. Went amazingly well with a simple tomato cucumber and bocconcini salad. I paired this up with a Tinhorn Rose which made it a complete meal.
