Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 lbs chicken breasts, cutlets (8 cutlets)
coarse salt
pepper
1 bunch arugula, stems trimmed
3 ounces soft fresh goat cheese, broken into small pieces
2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 425°.
Season chicken with salt and pepper.
On a clean work surface, lay cutlets flat (smooth sides down).
Dividing ingredients evenly, layer each cutlet with arugula; top with crumbled goat cheese in the center.
Starting with the narrow end, roll up chicken tightly; seal with a toothpick.
In a large nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.
Place chicken in pan, seam side down, and cook until until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
Turn chicken over.
Transfer skillet to oven. Cook until chicken is opaque throughout, 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove toothpicks, and slice chicken crosswise before serving, if desired.
