The herb-flavored chicken stays tender and moist in this entree developed by our Test Kitchen. Ingredients:
1 package (10 ounces) fresh spinach |
1/4 cup chopped fresh mushrooms |
1 green onion, finely chopped |
1 to 2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese |
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs |
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed, divided |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 pound) |
1/2 teaspoon each dried basil and dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, place spinach in a steamer basket over 1 in. of boiling water. Cover and steam for 2-3 minutes or just until wilted. When cool enough to handle, squeeze spinach dry and finely chop.
2. In a nonstick skillet, saute the mushrooms, onion and garlic in oil until tender. Add spinach; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the egg, cheese, bread crumbs, 1/4 teaspoon rosemary and salt until well blended.
3. Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. Combine the basil, thyme, pepper and remaining rosemary; rub over one side of chicken. Spread spinach mixture over plain side; roll up. Secure with toothpicks.
4. In a large saucepan, place roll-ups in a steamer basket over 1 in. of boiling water. Cover and steam for 12-15 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Yield: 4 servings.
