Baked Mediterranean Chicken
Baked Mediterranean Chicken
1/4 cup light cream cheese
1/2 cup roasted red peppers
2 tbsps shredded parmesan cheese
2 cups baby spinach
3 medium chicken breasts
2 tbsps butter
DirectionsCut chicken breasts in half through the centre, and pound flat to make 6 cutlets.
In a bowl, add cream cheese, parmesan cheese and chopped roasted red pepper.
Heat butter in a pan, and sauté spinach until wilted. Remove from pan and chop.
Add to bowl and mix with a spoon. Season with salt, pepper, or other preferred herbs and spices.
Spread a large spoonful of the mixture over each chicken cutlet.
Roll the cutlets and place on a lightly greased pan or parchment paper, seam-side down. Season with salt and pepper.
Bake at 400° F (200° C) for 45-60 minutes (depending on your oven). Remove, let cool and enjoy!
Note: would also be great topped with a little tzatziki or other dressing.
