Ingredients
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- kosher Salt
- black pepper
- 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots or onions
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 of a 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well-drained
- 3 tablespoons pine nuts or walnuts, toasted
- 3 ounces smoked reduced-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded (3/4 cup)
- 1/4 cup grated reduced-fat Parmesan cheese
Directions
-
Place each chicken breast half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, pound lightly into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Remove plastic wrap. Season with salt and pepper.
-
For filling, in a medium skillet cook shallots and garlic in 2 teaspoons hot oil until tender. Remove from heat; stir in spinach, nuts, and mozzarella.
-
To fill each roll, place 2 to 3 tablespoons of filling in the center of each chicken piece. Fold in bottom and sides and roll up; secure with wooden toothpicks.
-
Lightly brush each roll with the 1 tablespoon oil. Place rolls, seam sides down, in a shallow baking pan. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, in a 400° oven about 25 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Remove toothpicks.
