Spinach Parmesan Chicken
Here’s another one I found on AllRecipes.com, and have modified it to suit our taste.
Spinach Parmesan Chicken
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, pounded thin
2 Tbs butter
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
dash salt
dash pepper
2 Tbs all-purpose flour
1 cup skim milk
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
Combine cheese, bread crumbs and seasoning in a large ziploc bag. Moisten chicken with a little water, put chicken in bag (one breast at a time), seal and shake to coat. Reserve remaining coating for a topping.
Lay chicken in 9×13 baking pan that has been sprayed with non-stick spray.
In a medium saucepan, melt butter, saute garlic until softened. Add salt, pepper and flour, whisk to make paste. Slowly add milk and simmer, whisking until thick and bubbly. Stir in spinach.
Pour mixture over chicken, top with remaining cheese/bread crumb mixture. Bake at 350 for 20 - 30 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
Serves 4 (or, if the chicken breasts are large, they can be cut in half to serve 8).
