Butterfly the chicken breasts and pound them to ¼-inch thickness for easy rolling. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and paprika.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in the feta cheese and sun-dried tomatoes.

Divide the filling evenly among the chicken breasts. Roll up the chicken tightly and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the rolled chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
