Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 2 cloves garlic
• 0.5 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 0 cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

Step 2

Flatten each chicken breast to about 1/2 inch thickness by placing them between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pounding with a meat mallet.

Step 3

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

Step 4

In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 5

Add chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it cool slightly.

Step 6

Dice the red bell pepper and mix it into the cooled spinach along with low-fat mozzarella cheese.

Step 7

Spread 1/2 tablespoon of dijon mustard on each chicken breast, then evenly distribute the spinach mixture over the mustard.

Step 8

Roll up each chicken breast from the narrow end, securing with toothpicks if necessary.

Step 9

Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray and place the chicken rolls seam side down.

Step 10

Drizzle lemon juice over the chicken rolls and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the juices run clear.

Step 12

Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into rounds, and serve warm.
