Nutritional Tips and Tricks (1) Chicken.

Use 2 whole chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, about 0.5 pounds each.

I use fresh chicken.

If your freezer is frozen, thaw in the refrigerator until thawed before using this recipe.

(2) Spinach.

Weighs approximately 3 ounces.

I used fresh spinach, but frozen spinach is fine, just squeeze out the excess liquid before using.

(3) Sun-dried tomatoes.

I use dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes in plastic bags, usually found in American supermarkets.

As long as any excess oil is cleaned off, the oil packed in oil will be fine.

(4) Cut the chicken.

The purpose of cutting each chicken breast in half is to reduce cooking time and increase the area of ??the chicken exposed to the cheesy stuffing.

You should cut each chicken breast in half horizontally so that it is half as thick as before.

If the chicken breasts are unusually thick, you may need to cut each breast into 3 pieces.

Each resulting piece should be no thicker than about 1/2 inch.

Alternatively, pound chicken breasts to 1/2 inch or thinner.

(5) Service.
