Spinach Stuffed Chicken Parmesan

What you need:

    • 8 thinly sliced chicken breasts
    • 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
    • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
    • 2 large eggs, beaten slightly
    • 6 oz. baby spinach
    • 6 oz. shredded mozzarella
    • 6 oz. fresh mozzarella log, cut into thin slices
    • 1 cup pasta sauce
    • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

    1. Combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan in a bowl. In a separate bowl, beat eggs.
    2. Lay out your chicken breasts and on each, layer spinach leaves and shredded mozzarella.
    3. Roll each chicken breast up and secure with toothpicks, if needed.
    4. Carefully dip each rolled up breast into eggs and then breadcrumbs.
    5. Place seam side down in a greased baking pan.
    6. Bake for 25 minutes in a preheated 450* oven.
    7. Remove from the oven and spoon a tablespoon of sauce over each piece of chicken.
    8. Cover each piece with a slice of mozzarella.
    9. Return to oven and bake for about 5 more minutes. I turned my broiler on low to get a little brown on my cheese.
    10. Serve over cooked pasta, if desired. We did ours with garlic bread and a side salad.
