Wash and dry the chicken cutlets well with paper towels. Combine breadcrumbs in one bowl and in a second bowl mix the olive oil, lemon juice, and pepper. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly spray a baking dish with non-stick spray. Place each cutlet on a work surface such as a cutting board and lay 1/2 slice prosciutto, 1/2 slice cheese, 1 slice of roasted pepper and 3 spinach leaves on one side of the chicken cutlet. Roll and place seam side down on a dish (no toothpicks needed). Repeat with the remaining chicken. Dip the chicken in the lemon oil mix, then into the breadcrumbs to coat and place on the baking dish; when done spray the top of the chicken with olive oil or cooking spray. Bake 25 - 30 minutes.
