  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while preparing your workspace.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine fresh spinach, crumbled feta cheese, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. Take the chicken breasts and place them between two sheets of plastic wrap. Pound the chicken to about 1/2 inch thickness.
  4. Lay out each flattened chicken breast and spoon a generous amount of spinach filling along one edge, then roll tightly and secure.
  5. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, then sear the chicken rolls for 3-4 minutes until golden brown on all sides.
  6. Pour chicken broth around the rolls, transfer the skillet to the oven, and bake for 25-30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  7. Remove from the oven, let rest for about 5 minutes, then slice and serve.
