Broccoli & Spinach
stuffed Chicken Breast
Recipe By : Melissa
Categories: Chicken/Poultry/Eggs
1 package chopped spinach
1 package chopped broccoli
6 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3 large scallions
5 cloves garlic -- or less to taste
1 package chicken breasts (I used tenderloins) - maybe 2 pounds?
Line baking dish with tin foil
and heat over to 450
chop garlic and sautee in olive oil. Add spinach and broccoli
(if you
defrost it and dry it out a little, it won't splatter as much)
and sautee until its unfrozen. Take off heat and add cream cheese,
mozzarella, chopped scallions, salt and pepper to taste.
take chicken tenderloins and
place a few spoonfuls of spinach mixture on
tenderloin. Roll tenderloin around mixture and place in baking
dish with ends facing
down. Lie each piece right next to each other so it doesn't ooze
out as it cooks.
Any leftover filling can be added to pan to cook. You can sprinkle
more
mozzarella on top, or spread mustard across the top of each chicken
piece.
Cook for 20 minutes covered, then uncover until chicken is fully
cooked.
