Introduction

This is an idea I got after eating out at a Greek Restaurant...I was trying to incorporate the ingredients of Spanakopita without using the pastry... This is an idea I got after eating out at a Greek Restaurant...I was trying to incorporate the ingredients of Spanakopita without using the pastry...

Ingredients

    2 - 4 oz chicken breasts
    1 box frozen spinach
    1 small onion sliced
    1/2 cup reduced fat feta cheese
    1 TBSP Olive Oil

Directions

Defrost spinach and squeeze out all the liquid.

Saute onions and spinach in 1/2 TBSP olive oil until onions are soft. Remove from heat and cool. Mix in cheese.

Butterfly Chicken breasts and rub outside with olive oil.

Put 1/2 onion mixture into each chicken breast and close. They'll be really full...it will look kind of like a sandwich.

Broil for 10-12 minutes on each side.

Makes 2 servings

    This was absolutely amazing! I added garlic and red bell pepper to the stuffing just for kicks. Delicious! - 9/10/10
