• While spinach is cooling sauté chicken, peppers and scallion; season to taste.
• When spinach is still warm sprinkle with mozzarella cheese all over, add sliced chicken, peppers and onions. Roll up starting with short end. When you have a complete roll, cut (you should get about three separate rolls out of this one pan). Can be sliced in 1/2" or smaller pieces for appetizer.

CHICKEN SPINACH ROULADE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Grease a baking sheet.
• Place chicken breasts between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a uniform thickness of 1 inch.
• Heat spinach in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Whisk eggs, Parmesan cheese, and milk together in a bowl.
• Stir egg mixture into the spinach; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Spread about 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of the spinach mixture onto each pounded chicken breast.
• Roll each breast into a cylinder shape, secure ends with toothpicks, and arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
• Sprinkle bread crumbs atop rolled chicken.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 45 minutes. Allow chicken to rest for several minutes before removing toothpicks and serving.

CHICKEN ROULADE STUFFED WITH PROSCIUTTO, SPINACH AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES WITH WHITE TRUFFLE POTATOES

Steps:

• Lay a long piece of plastic wrap over your cutting board and tuck it underneath the sides of the board. (Covering the chicken with the plastic will also keep the mess down when you pound with the meat mallet.) The chicken breasts should be placed on the covered cutting board, skin side down, with enough space between them so they can lay flat after you "butterfly" them. To make the butterfly cut, carefully slice open (without slicing the chicken all the way through) and spread the flesh of the chicken out so you will be able to pound it out into a single thin piece on which you will place stuffing and then roll up. Season the breasts with salt and pepper. Then put another length of plastic wrap over the seasoned chicken breasts and flatten with meat mallet to integrate the seasoning into the chicken. Pound chicken thin.
• Lay 1 slice of prosciutto ham on each breast. Add 3 leaves of spinach and 4 pieces of sun-dried tomatoes on each breast. Fold in each end and roll tightly. Place on sheet tray and freeze until firm. (It does not have to be frozen completely hard, but this makes it easier to handle when breading.)
• Preheat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• While the chicken roulade is hardening in the freezer, prepare the tomato demi-glace. In a saucepan, saute garlic and then deglaze the pan with the wine. Add stock and tomato puree. Boil over medium heat until reduced by half. Add the demi-glace (brown sauce) and let simmer until thickened ("medium thickness").
• When the chicken is firm, set up a breading station. Whisk together 3 eggs and 1 cup of the half-and-half for the egg wash. (Begin with this amount and whisk more together if needed.) Then set up a bowl each of: flour, then egg wash, and then Italian bread crumbs. Evenly coat rolled frozen chicken with flour (not too much or bread crumbs won't stick). Dip floured rolled chicken into egg wash, then into bread crumbs. In a deep-fat fryer, lightly fry until golden brown. Finish in the oven for 15 minutes until completely cooked through. Remove from oven and let rest.
• Boil the potatoes until tender. Then mash the potatoes and whip chopped chives, butter, salt and freshly ground pepper into the potatoes with a beater.
• Re-heat the tomato demi-glace and to finish remove from heat, and immediately whisk in fresh thyme and 1 tablespoon butter.
• Slice each chicken roll to expose the stuffed interior. Place mashed potatoes in center of each plate, drizzle white truffle oil over the potatoes. Lay chicken roulade over potatoes.

SPINACH AND FETA CHICKEN ROULADE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. 2 For the Filling: in a large sauté pan over medium high heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil, shallot, and garlic and sauté until tender about 3 minutes. Add the spinach, in 3 batches, allowing the spinach to wilt a little with each addition, season with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Remove from heat, and allow to cool to room temperature. Using a kitchen towel, ring out any excess moisture from the spinach mixture. 3 Roughly chop the spinach mixture and add to a medium bowl, along with pine nuts, feta cheese, lemon zest, Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper and chili flakes, if desired. Fold together until combined. 4 For the Chicken Roulade: season the chicken breasts with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the 4 chicken breasts, keeping the filling away from the edges. Beginning at the narrower end of the chicken of 1 chicken breast, roll up, enclosing the filling as you would a jelly roll. Tie with kitchen twine every inch to secure. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts. 5 Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a cast iron skillet, over medium high heat and add the chicken. Rotate to evenly brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Place in oven, bake until a thermometer registers to 165ºF on the thickest part of the chicken, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from oven. Let rest 5 minutes. Cut the twine and slice into 1-inch pieces. 6 Garnish with parsley and lemon wedges. 7 Tips: - Use a pork cutlet instead of chicken! - Make sure you don't over-stuff the chicken, or the filling will come out the sides!

CHICKEN ROULADE

Steps:

• Place the spinach in a large nonstick skillet with the washing water clinging to the leaves or a tablespoon or two of water if dried. Cover and cook for 2 minutes, tossing occasionally, or until wilted. Drain and press firmly with the back of a spoon or squeeze to remove excess moisture. There should be 1/2 cup spinach. Wipe out the skillet.
• Meanwhile, in a medium nonstick skillet, combine the onion, 1 teaspoon oil, garlic, red-pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon water. Turn the heat to medium. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the onion sizzles. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, stirring once, for about 3 minutes, or until softened. In a small bowl, combine the onion mixture, cheese, and spinach. Stir to mix. Set aside.
• Sprinkle the tomatoes evenly on the smooth side of the cutlets.
• Divide the spinach mixture among the cutlets. Spread to the edges of 3 sides, leaving about 1" at the narrow tip free of spinach mixture. Loosely roll up the chicken, ending with the narrow tip, and secure with wooden picks.
• Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the large skillet and set over medium heat. Place the chicken in the pan. Cook, turning, for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown on all sides. Add the broth or wine, cover, and cook over low heat for about 7 minutes. Uncover and transfer chicken to a serving platter. Cover with foil to keep warm.
• Boil the skillet juices for about 5 minutes, or until reduced to a glaze. Diagonally slice the chicken into 1"-thick pieces. Drizzle with pan juices and serve.
