I also made santa fe chicken in the crockpot today too to have meals for lunch. It's delicious as well!

Chicken Rollatini with Spinach alla Parmigiana
Gina's Weight Watcher Recipes
Servings: 8 • Serving Size: 1 stuffed breast • Old Points: 4 pts • Points+: 5 pts
Calories: 194.7 • Fat: 7 g • Protein: 24.2 g • Carb: 7.2 g • Fiber: 1.5 g

8 thin chicken cutlets, 3 oz each
1/2 cup whole wheat Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, divided
6 tablespoons egg whites or egg beaters
5 oz frozen spinach, squeezed dry of any liquid
6 tbsp part skim ricotta cheese
6 oz part skim mozzarella (I used Polly-O)
olive oil non-stick spray (I use my Misto)
1 cup pomodoro sauce or your favorite marinara sauce
salt and pepper to taste

Wash and dry cutlets, season with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 450°. Lightly spray a baking dish with non-stick spray.
Combine breadcrumbs and 2 tbsp grated cheese in one bowl and 1/4 cup egg beaters or egg whites in another.

Shred or finely chop 1.5 oz of mozzarella cheese and combine with remaining grated cheese, spinach (make sure you squeeze it dry), 2 tbsp egg beaters, and ricotta cheese.

Lay chicken cutlets down on a working surface and spread 2 tbsp of spinach-cheese mixture on each cutlet. Loosely roll each one and keep seam side down.

Dip chicken in egg mixture, then in breadcrumbs and place seam side down in a baking dish (no toothpicks needed). Repeat with the remaining chicken. When finished, lightly spray with olive oil.

Bake 25 minutes. Remove from oven, top with sauce then cheese.

Bake until cheese is melted and bubbling, about 3 more minutes. Serve with additional sauce on the side and grated cheese.

I made chicken last night and it was SO tasty! I mixed 1/4 c dijon mustard, 2 tbsp water, 2 tsp fresh thyme, 1/4 tsp pepper and 1/4 tsp paprika in a bowl. Rolled boneless skinless chicken breasts in it, then in super fine plain breadcrumbs. Put them on a baking sheet lined with foil and tightly covered, and put in the fridg for anywhere from 2-12 hours. Then when ready to bake, put them in a pre-heated 375 degree over for about 40-50 minutes. Super easy and super tasty!!! The chicken stays very moist because of the mustard mix. YUMO!!!

I am a little confused...do the bread crumbs go on both sides?

baileysmom4 · March 2013

you kinda have to roll the chicken in the bread crumbs to get it all over.

1 chicken breast cut into 1 inch pieces and sauted with some olive oil spray and some garlic garlic (tastefully simple) then when chicken is done add a tablespoon of cream cheese and a tablespoon of pomegranite chipolte (again tastefully simple) and you have a yummy chicken dish. I had a side of brussell sprouts. Got to thinking though if I made more sauce with it then it could go over some noodles or even rice pilaf and really be a nice chicken dish, but I don't have enough pomegranite chipolte to share with the whole family so I'm the only one who's going to enjoy this dish, although I did share half of the original dish with my husband and he was impressed
