  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Combine broccoli with 2 tablespoons water in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Drain.
  • Transfer broccoli to a large bowl. Stir in pepper Jack, mayonnaise, mushrooms, and garlic powder.
  • Season chicken breasts on both sides with paprika, salt, and pepper. Use a sharp knife to cut a slice through the middle of each breast to create a deep pocket, making sure not to cut all the way through. Evenly stuff each breast with broccoli mixture and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
