this recipe is a YUMMY one (ok, when you love food, like i do, not much is going to be bad-or at least i probably wouldn't take the time to blog about it if it were bad). i made this for a friend after she had a baby. i figured it was relatively harmless for a nursing mother.
1 package (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed (let me stop here and say, if you don't like spinach, this is wayyyyyy toooooo much-i'm just sayin')
8 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
6 thinly sliced boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 4 oz each (i never really pay attention to these little details-plus i don't have a scale to measure out chicken-but i thik my pieces may have been a bit big-note to self for next time)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
6 slices bacon
1. heat oven to 325. place a rack in a large baking pan (didn't have a rack, so i put it directly in the pan)
2. drain and squeeze liquid from spinach. in a medium-sized bowl, mix together spinach, feta, mayonnaise and garlic.
3. in batches, place chicken breasts between sheets of waxed paper and pound to 1/8-inch thickness (stop #2-this is a
4. sprinkle with paprika. wrap a slice of bacon around each piece of chicken and place on the prepared rack (or, in my case, the pan)
5. bake at 325 for 55 to 60 minutes or until internal temp reads 160. run under the broiler for a minute or two, if desired.
this is so easy and looks and tastes GREAT!!!! the kids even liked it.
happy cooking and eating!
