Ingredients
-
3 c spinach
4 oz cream cheese
1/4 c shredded parmesan
1 sweet onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled/smashed/chopped
4 chicken breasts, pounded thin
Tips
If you make the spinach mixture ahead of time and allow to solidify a bit in the fridge first, it will be easier to handle. Next time, I'm going to try that so I can handle well enough to grill.
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Sautee onions and garlic in olive oil until translucent. Add spinach and stir well until wilted. Remove from heat. Add cream cheese and cheese and stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
Put a generous dollop of the spinach mixture on each chicken breast and wrap breast ends over top. Secure with a toothpick.
Spoon remaining spinach mixture over breats and bake for 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees.
