Chicken Rollatini With Cheese, Ham & Spinach

"Adapted from Robin Miller's Quick Fix show, this is more fussy than her usual recipes but still not terribly complicated and very delicious. You absolutely can use any kind of soft cheese you like, such as Alouette with herbs or perhaps even soft cream cheese with chives. Serve with a salad or a bright green veggie and a side of lightly buttered pasta noodles."

  1. Tasty dish. I sub'd in some yogurt with the mustard cause I thought it might be abit overpowering for us, it worked well. And, just for the fun of it I sub'd some feta for the goat cheese & kale for the spinach. For a stuffed/rolled chicken dish it was one of the easier ones to prepare, thanks for sharing.
     
  2. This is one of my favorite recipies! I saw it on TV and I make it when I have company over. It's great with some organic risotto instead of the pasta. I prepare it like they did on TV- Use an oven-safe frying pan and throw the whole thing in the oven when you are done browning the chicken.
     
  3. Excellent and flavorful recipe! Company worthy! I used light Allouette cheese and thawed frozen chopped spinach. I served chicken over fetuccine tossed with a simple sauce of extra virgin olive oil and garlic.
     
  4. Tried this chicken for lunch today and WOW we loved it. I used maple deli ham and the chicken was just bursting with flavor. It really looks harder than it is to fix...I found it quite easy. This recipe is definitely a keeper and I plan on fixing it a lot in the future!
