chicken pizza parmasan
I found a "version" of this recipe on the Nate Berkus Show. I "tweeked" it a bit to make it more kid friendly. My oldest said it tasted like chicken pizza, so that's how it got its name. Hope you enjoy!

How To Make chicken pizza parmasan
-
Step 1Cut chicken breast length wise to make thinner. Beat down with meat cleaver to make extra thin.
-
Step 2Roast the garlic cloves in a touch of olive oil. This makes them easier to mince.
-
Step 3In large bowl mix the following: 1 cup of chopped spinach, 2 cups mozzarella/provolone cheese blend, minced garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper.
-
Step 4Take a handful of mixture and place on top of chicken breast evenly until all chicken has the mixture.
-
Step 5Roll the chicken tightly and use a toothpick to hold in place.
-
Step 6Dip the rolled chicken breast into the beaten egg and dip in the panko bread crumbs. Evenly coat outside of entire piece of chicken.
-
Step 7Place on lightly greased pan and bake for 35 minutes.
-
Step 8While the chicken is cooking, heat up the spaghetti sauce. Once the chicken has cooked 35 minutes, take out of the oven, spoon spaghetti sauce over each piece, garnish with the remaining spinach and put a pinch of parmasan cheese on top. Place back in the oven for 10 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted and slightly browning.
