Grilled Chicken with Spinach, Roasted Peppers and Mozzarella

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts sliced in half lengthwise to make 8 cutlets
  • salt and pepper to taste 
  • Italian Seasoning blend
  • 2 tsp olive oil 
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed 
  • Large Container of fresh baby spinach, washed
  • 1 ball fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced 
  • 1 cup roasted red pepper, sliced in strips (packed in water) 
  • olive oil spray

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Season chicken with salt and pepper and Italian Seasoning.

Lightly spray a grill pan over medium high heat with oil. Cook chicken on the grill,, turning once, just until no longer pink, with juices running clear....about 3 minutes per side depending on thickness. Meanwhile, heat a sauté pan on medium heat. Add oil and garlic, sauté a few seconds, add spinach, salt and pepper. Cook a few minutes until wilted and heated through.

When chicken is done, lay on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment for easy clean-
up. Divide spinach evenly between the 8 pieces and place on top. Top each with 2 slices of roasted pepper criss-crossed, then a thin slice or mozzarella and bake until cheese is melted, about 6-8 minutes.
