A while back I was at a conference & one evening they served stuffed chicken. Oh my word, I practically inhaled it & was secretly wishing I had another couple of pieces.
It was so good & I vowed to come home & make my own just so I could have that amazing flavor again. The family, of course, loves it as much as I do.
But then we decided that it would be even better if we breaded the chicken & gave it a chicken parmesan spin. My friends, all that crispy, crunchy goodness on the outside with the marinara & cheese is just so delectable.
But then you cut it open & you have all that amazing spinach & ricotta & my eyes roll to the back of my head & I’m in heaven.
This is THE recipe to make when you are looking to impress the crowd. I promise it won’t let you down. Everyone will rave, they will ask for the recipe & beg you to make it again & again. It is THAT GOOD!
