6. Add the stuffed chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
8. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
