Ingredients

4 4oz chicken breasts pounded flat

4 oz Mushroom Pate

salt and pepper

1 tbsp butter

Spinach and Cheese Filling

--------------------

3/4 cup non-fat cottage cheese

1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

1/2 cup finely shredded spinach

1/2 tsp minced ginger root

Directions

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a shallow baking dish.

Mix the cottage cheese, parmesan, shredded spinach and ginger root together. I popped mine back in the fridge to rest a bit.

I used wax paper to sandwich the individual chicken breast portions then rythmically pounded each to about 1/4" thickness. Change out the paper for each pounding session. Pull it back gently because the chicken will tend to stick a bit to the paper, but if you go slow you won't have to pick it off. Some folks like to use saran wrap instead. Whatever works for you, just don't pound them naked.

Sprinkle a little bit of salt and pepper on each pounded breast and let them rest a bit.

The mushroom pate has become a condiment in the house so I just happened to have some lying around. I recommend ChefMeow's Almond-Mushroom pate, its very simple and a great use of that box of mushrooms you been meaning to use.

Spread each each chicken breast portion with a layer of the mushroom pate. Then top that with the cheese filling.

Roll up each chicken breast. Place each chicken breast in the baking dish seam side down. Rub the outside of the chicken roll lightly with butter, sprinkle a little paprika on for color.

Cook for 30 - 40 minutes until golden brown.
