Ingredients

  • 2 cup baby spinach
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic diced
  • 2 chicken breast fillet skinless
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbs olive oil

Method

  • Step 1
    In a medium saucepan, heat oil and sauté diced onion and garlic. Add the spinach and season with salt. Set aside to cool.
  • Step 2
    Trim off the tenderloin on the breast fillets. Wrap the fillet in a glad wrap and pound the chicken fillet with the meat tenderiser to about a 1/2 inch thickness. Remove the plastic wrap.
  • Step 3
    Lay the breast fillets on a clean counter and spread the spinach mixture over the chicken. Tightly roll up each chicken breast (wide end to narrow end) and secure with toothpicks. Place seam side down to prevent any mixture coming out.
  • Step 4
    Once rolled out season the chicken with salt, black pepper, and paprika and brush with olive oil.
  • Step 5
    Heat a non stick pan and cook on each side for 5 minutes each making sure all sides have browned. Remove the toothpicks. Slice the chicken into thick pieces as you desire and serve.

Equipment

  • cling wrap
  • 1 saucepan
  • 1 non-stick frying pan
  • 1 meat tenderiser
