Spinach Chicken Roll Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium cast iron skillet or pan, cook the bacon until almost brown, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onions and cook, stirring, until caramelized, about 10 minutes.
• Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Place a chicken breast on a piece of plastic wrap. Cover with more plastic wrap and pound until thin. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
• Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap and layer the chicken on the plastic so the edges are overlapping slightly.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Layer the ham, Swiss cheese, and bacon-carmelized onion mixture over the chicken.
• Roll the chicken into a log tightly wrap in plastic, twisting the ends to seal.

Steps:

• Make the chicken rolls: Butterfly the chicken breasts and season on both sides with 1 teaspoon of pepper, the onion powder, 2 teaspoons of salt, and the garlic powder.
• Place a chicken breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet, rolling pin, or heavy pan until about ¼ inch (6 mm) thick.
• Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap and place a handful of baby spinach over the center of the chicken breast, then cover with ¼ cup (50 G) of sun-dried tomatoes. Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the chicken, using the plastic wrap to help. Wrap the chicken roll tightly in plastic wrap to secure. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Chill the chicken rolls in the fridge for 30-60 minutes.
• Make the béchamel sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallot and cook until softened and the onions are beginning to caramelize and become very fragrant, about 5 minutes. Stir in the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and diced tomatoes and cook until the spinach is wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the heavy cream and flour and stir to incorporate. Add the salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, 5-7 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the lemon juice.
• Heat 2-3 (5 - 7 cm) inches of oil in a large heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat until it reaches 325°F (170°C).
• Add the panko to a shallow dish and stir in 1 teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Add the eggs to a separate shallow dish. Add the flour to a third shallow dish and stir in the remaining teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon pepper.
• Remove the chicken rolls from the fridge and coat in the flour, then the eggs, then the bread crumbs.
• Fry the breaded chicken rolls in the hot oil for about 5 minutes per side, or until the outside is an even golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). You may need to work in batches, so as not to overcrowd the pan. If a good color is achieved and the chicken's center is still not to temperature, place the chicken on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and finish cooking in the oven at 325°F (170°C) until the proper temperature is reached. Once the proper internal temperature is reached, place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with paper towels and a wire rack to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
• Slice the chicken rolls and serve over a bed of spaghetti with the béchamel sauce and a green salad alongside.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place cutlets on a plastic cutting board and season with salt and pepper. Top with chopped sage, 2 slices prosciutto each and a few thin slices of fontina. Roll tightly and secure with toothpicks. Season outside of rolls with more salt and pepper, then dredge in flour.
• Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan and 1 tablespoon butter to the pan. Add chicken and raise heat to medium high. Brown the rolls evenly, 5 minutes, then place on a nonstick cookie sheet and transfer to oven to roast for 15 minutes longer. Add another tablespoon butter to the pan and melt it. Add mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until just tender 3 or 4 minutes. Add flour and cook another minute. Whisk in stock. Season pan gravy with mushrooms with salt and pepper and turn off heat. Reheat with moderate flame when you remove chicken rolls from the oven and you are ready to serve.
• Preheat a second skillet over medium heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil 2 turns of the pan, and the garlic. Add the spinach to the pan in bunches and turn to wilt. Add more spinach as it wilts down until all the spinach is in the pan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste and serve warm.
• To plate, leave rolls whole and spill sauce over top, spinach alongside, or, slice rolls and fan them out over a bed of spinach and top with mushroom sauce.
• *Ask butcher to butterfly the breasts into large cutlets for you. This is a real time-saver! If a butcher is not available to you, cut into each breast from the fatter side and work across the breast, leaving them attached at the opposite side. Open the breast up and pound lightly with a mallet to about a 1/4-inch thickness. Also, in many supermarkets chicken cutlets are available in packages. They are small pieces of thinly sliced breast meat. Simply adapt the method and make 2 small roll-ups rather than 1 large roll up per portion.

Steps:

• Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness; layer with spinach and cheese. Roll up and secure with toothpicks. In a shallow microwave-safe bowl, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Place bread crumbs in another bowl. Dip chicken in butter, then roll in crumbs. , Place seam side down in an 8-in. square baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until chicken juices run clear. , In a small saucepan, melt remaining butter. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually add broth and milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Discard toothpicks from roll-ups; serve with sauce.

Steps:

• Add a tablespoon of olive oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add garlic and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
• Add the spinach and artichoke, and stir.
• Mix in cream cheese, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese, and stir until the cheeses are well incorporated. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
• To pound out the chicken, take a chicken breast and butterfly it by slicing half way into it to open like a book, making sure not to slice all the way through. Cover the breast with parchment paper or plastic wrap. Gently pound the meat with a mallet or rolling pin until it is evenly flattened, about ¼ inch (6 mm) in thickness.
• Onto each pounded chicken breast, evenly add ¼ of the spinach-artichoke mixture, but making sure to not overfill the chicken.
• Carefully roll the chicken breast until the ends overlap and then place the chicken into a greased baking dish.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully opaque and reaches at least 165°F (75°C).
