Everything Good Comes Stuffed Chicken Breast

In the south we have many variations on comfort food. It seems like you can toss a rock and hit a fried chicken stand from just about anywhere. Growing up in the country I have tried my fair share of soul food and there aren't too many things I won't eat! But even though I appreciate and love fried chicken I also like a more refined take on the southern classic. My "Everything Good Comes Stuffed Chicken Breast" puts a twist on regular chicken. I also like to switch up the cheese in this recipe from time to time so get crazy and try your favorites!


Everything Good Comes Stuffed Chicken Breast
6 boneless, skinless chicken breast, place in a large Ziploc bag and pound till about 1/4 of an inch thick
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs (I like to make my own so I can add my own spices, I will also post that recipe)
1 small package frozen spinach 
8 ounces crumbled blue cheese (I like to add some feta as well)
8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 onion chopped


Preheat oven to 350. Mix spinach, cheese, bacon and onion together. Beat eggs in a shallow dish to dip chicken in. You can either cut a slit lengthwise on the side of the breast and stuff there or simply place the filling on top and roll up, whichever you decide make sure you stuff with lots of filling and secure with toothpicks. Dip the stuffed chicken in the eggs and roll in bread crumbs. Place chicken in a skillet with a little olive oil and brown slightly. Place in greased casserole dish and bake for 45 mins.
Enjoy!!!
