Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 Package (12 oz.) Stouffer's frozen spinach souffle, not thawed
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
salt
pepper
1 tablespoon chopped parsley, for garnish
Slices lemon, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350º F. Using a serrated knife, cut the spinach souffle crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Top half of each whole breast with one of the pieces of souffle. Fold half of the chicken over the filling and fasten the edges with wooden picks. Place the garlic and oil in the pan. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it just begins to smoke. Discard the garlic. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 7 minutes per side, or until well browned on both sides. Remove the chicken breasts to an oven-proof dish. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or until the thickest portion registers 165ºF and juices run clear. While chicken is baking, add broth, lemon juice, mustard, salt and pepper to the large skillet. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until sauce is reduced to about 1/2. To serve, remove and discard the wooden picks. Arrange chicken on a warm serving platter and spoon sauce over the chicken. Garnish with parsley and lemon.
