STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST

  • 4 large chicken breast (boneless, skinless)
  • 1 can chicken gravy light (16 ounces)
  • 2 boxes stuffing (12 ounces)
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (low fat)
  • 1 small can of cranberry sauce (optional, 6 ounces)
  • 1 meat mallet
  • 1 box toothpicks
  • 1 tsp. sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 roll saran wrap


Directions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  Rinse chicken.  Place one chicken breast at a time on the saran wrap for preparation before baking.  Cover the chicken with the rest of the wrap and pound out flat with the mallet.  Avoid pounding the chicken breast so that they get too thin.  Cook stuffing according to instructions on package.
  2. Place a layer of the sauteed spinach then a layer of the cooked stuffing, then cheese on the upper half of each chicken breast.  Roll lower half of each chicken breast into baking pan. Stick a toothpick into chicken roll.  Repeat each piece with the same procedure.  Season the stuffed chicken breast with salt, pepper and garlic pepper.
  3. Pour chicken gravy on top of the chicken.  Put into oven for 30 to 40 minutes.  top off with cranberry sauce.  Yum!
