I had dinner with Grace and Kathy last week, and this is what we cooked. Both turned out really good, and paired well with our wine. :)

2 tbls olive oil
6 green onions (chopped)
16 oz crab meat
1 egg
1 tbls mayo
1 tsp mustard
8 oz ritz crackers for bread crumbs
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp old bay (i didn't use this and it still turned out good)
1/2 tsp cayenne

DIRECTIONS:

Chicken INGREDIENTS: Adapted from food.com
4  chicken breasts
1 tbls minced garlic
2 tbls olive oil
1 (16 oz) bag spinach
1 c feta
2 c seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 c butter (melted)




  • DIRECTIONS:
    Preheat oven to 350.
  • Prepare chicken for stuffing.(You can either, slice 2 thick chicken breasts in half and make 4, or beat 4 chicken breast until thin and wide.).
  • Cook spinach in garlic and oil on top of stove until done.
  • Add in feta cheese and mix well. (You can add as much as you like.)
  • Distribute spinach mixture onto each chicken breast. (You may have some leftover).
  • Wrap chicken around mixture (kinda like a taco) and secure with a toothpick.
  • Roll each breast in bread crumbs until well coated.
