Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add the 2 minced shallots, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the 2 cloves minced garlic and 3 cups chopped spinach, and cook until the spinach has wilted. Remove from heat.

Place the stuffed breasts onto a 9X13 inch baking dish. Bake uncovered for 30-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and there is a nice brown crust on the top of each one.
