ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 4 ounce room temperature cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup sliced scallions
  • 2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
  • 4 thinly sliced chicken breasts
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 beaten egg
  • olive oil, for drizzling

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375 F.

  • Step 2

    Cook spinach in sauté pan until wilted. Drain excess water.

  • Step 3

    In small bowl combine cream cheese, cooked spinach, scallions and 2 teaspoons of everything bagel seasoning. Set aside.

  • Step 4

    Place chicken on cutting board and pound until about 1/4" thin. Evenly spread cream cheese mixture among the 4 chicken breasts. Roll the chicken up and secure with a toothpick.

  • Step 5

    In a shallow bowl combine panko, 1 tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning and black pepper. In another shallow bowl add beaten egg.

  • Step 6

    Dip rolled chicken first in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then in the panko mixture pressing firmly to ensure the coating sticks. Place coated chicken on baking sheet, toothpick side down. Repeat with remaining chicken.

  • Step 7

    Bake for 25-30 minutes or until outside is golden and chicken reads 165 F internally. (To ensure chicken is extra golden and crispy I like to place under the broiler for 1-2 minutes.)
