Greek-Inspired Chicken, Stuffed with Spinach and Feta Cheese

Yet another one of my "Greek-Inspired" recipes...lol.  Similar to a previous recipe I posted, in that this one also has spinach and feta cheese...

http://positivelygina.blogspot.com/2012/10/greek-inspired-chicken-cutlets.html

The first step is to lightly saute baby spinach in olive oil and a bit of minced garlic, then  set aside and let it cool down.

Next,
Below:  Thinly sliced chicken breast cutlets, seasoned with black pepper.  I don't add salt to the chicken because Feta cheese is already salty.


Next,
Below:  Place a bit of the spinach/garlic mixture, and a cube of Feta cheese on the cutlets as shown...


Next,
Below:  Carefully roll up the cutlets and place in a baking pan, making sure the open section is facing down...I then added some melted "Smart Balance" on top, to which I also added just a dash of hot-sauce.

Bake at 400 degrees for approximately 25 minutes.  

Don't slice them as soon as they come out of the oven.  Let them sit for 5 to 10 minutes so that they set-up a bit, and the stuffing won't come tumbling out!


Next,
Below:
Enjoy!
A nice and delicious stuffed chicken cutlet with spinach and Feta cheese...served with roasted potatoes.  Yum!


Ciao for now,
