Delicious, healthy, soft and juicy chicken with spinach and cheese, baked in the oven. The chicken is pre-fried in a pan so that all the juices are sealed inside and the meat remains juicy, and then baked in the oven. Spinach adds juiciness and freshness to the dish. Chicken with spinach is quick and easy to cook, even after work in the evening.

Composition:

Chicken breast - 800 g
Spinach - 400 g (fresh or frozen)
Cheese - 150 g
Cream (10%) or milk - 1 glass
Garlic - 2-3 cloves
Ground black pepper - to taste
Salt to taste

Preparation:

Wash the chicken breast, remove the remaining fat and films. Dry the breasts. Cut each fillet in half lengthwise to form thin steaks. Beat off chicken meat lightly. Cover the chicken with a foil / bag before beating so that the pieces of meat do not scatter around the kitchen and stain everything around.

Season the beaten meat with salt and pepper on both sides.

Heat some odorless vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the breasts over high heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until they become white. The breast should not be fried until cooked, it just has to grab onto the top so that it remains juicy during further cooking in the oven. All the breasts will not fit in the pan at once, so you need to fry them in several passes, periodically adding oil to the pan.

Place the cooked breasts in an even layer in a greased baking dish.

Boil water in a small saucepan and blanch the spinach after boiling the water again for 1 minute. Frozen spinach does not need to be defrosted beforehand.

Place the blanched spinach in a colander and squeeze thoroughly with a spoon. Peel the garlic, chop with a knife or press and mix with the spinach.

Place the spinach on top of the pre-fried chicken, flatten and add a little salt.

Next, pour in low-fat cream or milk.

Grate the cheese on a coarse grater and sprinkle it on the chicken and spinach. You can use any cheese you like. I like to use the most salty types of cheese more, you can even experiment and add a little feta.

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Fry rolls from all sides until golden brown... The flour shell will keep the fibers tender inside, create an enveloping top layer.
Mix the cream with sour cream, lightly salt / pepper. Pour into a frying pan with half-cooked chicken. The rolls should be 3/4 submerged in the liquid. Add more cream (or a little water) if necessary. Simmer over low heat, covered for 10 minutes. We do not allow active bubbling, otherwise the cream may curdle.
