    1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly oil a baking dish or line a sheet pan with parchment.

    2. Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, shallot, and mushrooms; cook, stirring, till mushrooms start to soften then add spinach and cook until spinach is wilted and mushrooms have softened, 3–5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

    3. In a bowl, combine mascarpone, cheddar, Parmesan, dried basil, dried tarragon, and a pinch of Dalmatian
      blend until smooth. Gently fold in the warm spinach mixture.

    1. Pat the chicken dry. Using a sharp paring knife, create a pocket along the side with the natural fold—do not
      cut all the way through.

    2. Rub each breast lightly with olive oil and season the outside (top and bottom) with Sweet OG.

    3. Stuff each breast with 1/4 of the filling. If needed, secure the opening with toothpicks. Sprinkle a little more Sweet OG on top.

    1. Place stuffed chicken in the prepared baking dish.

    2. Bake uncovered at 375°F for 17–20 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C).

    3. Rest 5 minutes before serving. Great with mashed potatoes and roasted green beans or asparagus.
