ingredients

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 0.25 ml salt
• 0.25 ml pepper
• 113.39 g spinach (fresh or frozen)

directions

1. Using a mallet or meat tenderizer, pound the chicken breasts until the meat is flat and even.
2. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
3. Add a layer of spinach and a slice of Swiss cheese. Roll each breast tightly to ensure that the filling can not escape.
4. Wrap each breast tightly in aluminum foil.
5. In a deep pan, bring the water to a boil.
6. Place the foil-wrapped breasts into the water. Use a heat-proof plate to weigh the chicken breasts down and keep them completely submerged in the water.
7. Allow them to simmer in the water for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is completely done.
