  4. Place in a bag with 1 cup of buttermilk or milk and tablespoon of lemon juice.
  5. Put the spinach in a large bowl and put in microwave for 2-3 minutes or until wilted.

  10. Take the spinach, sour cream etc mixture and place spoonfuls of it in the center of each flattened chicken breast.
  11. You should use all the mixture.
