- Preheat oven to 350 F. 6.
- Pour the chopped onion and garlic and the package of spinach into the frying pan over medium-high heat.
- If the whole package of spinach wont fit, you can continuously pour it in as it will shrink once you start to fry it.

- Cook for about 5 minutes on medium-high, until onions turn slightly brown and spinach has shrunk.
- 8.
- Pour the whisked eggs, and breadcrumbs into the frying pan.
- Stir until mixed through.

- Once thoroughly mixed, place about 2-3 spoonfuls of the spinach mixture in the middle of each chicken cutlet.
- Roll the cutlet from south to north making sure that mixture stays inside of the cutlet.
- If needed, you can insert a skewer so that cutlet doesnt fall apart when cooking.

- 11.
- Take the dish out of the oven and flip cutlets over.
- Place in the oven for an additional 15 minutes.
- *Note: Not all ovens cook food evenly, so once you take the chicken out after the second 15 minutes, cut into a piece to see if its cooked.
- If not, put it back in the oven for an additional 2 minutes.
- Check again.
- If not cooked, repeat this 2 minute process until cooked.
- Its important to not leave it in for more than 2 minutes in order that the white meat does not dry out.
- Once taken out and ready to serve, use the additional sauce in the baking dish to pour over the chicken for extra flavoring.
