Baked Cheese Chicken Rolls Recipe

Cut chicken to 8 pieces then pounds till thin and surface area expanded (to make cooking faster). Put breadcrumbs to a shallow bowl and add 2 tbsp of Parmesan cheese and put aside.

Cut spinach and sauté with garlic and sprinkle olive oil for about 2 to 3 minutes or continue till wilted barely. Mix ricotta and sautéed spinach, 2 to 3 tbsp of egg white and Parmesan cheese. Put egg white that remains in the separate shallow bowl and keep one side.

To prepare the chicken: Grease bottom of the big baking dish and set the oven to 450⁰. Put a piece of chicken on a flat surface and add 1 spoonful of ricotta-spinach filing at the center. Roll the chicken up and make sure edges meet so as to form a “seam”. Put all the chicken rolls into egg whites and roll it inside breadcrumbs. Put inside baking dish and seam from the side down. Do again for the 7 pieces of chicken that remain and bake for 25 minutes.

After baking for 25 minutes, the chicken will turn brown on top and white on the side which will be an indication that it is done. With sauce cover the entire chicken together with fresh Mozzarella slices. Now bake for additional 3 to 5 minutes or continue to bake till cheese start to melt. Drizzle with fresh basil on top.
