Cooking Instructions:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly brush chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Place chicken on a baking pan. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until chicken is almost cooked through.
- In the meantime, sauté spinach and mushrooms in 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Remove chicken from oven. Cut a pocket into the chicken breasts and stuff them with the sautéed spinach and mushrooms. Add feta cheese to the pockets.
- Wrap each chicken breast in foil, creating parcels. Put them back in the oven for another 15 minutes.
- Mix chopped cucumber with Greek yogurt to make a refreshing side salad.
- Once chicken is fully cooked, remove from oven and let it rest before serving it with the cucumber salad.
Plating:
Place one Pro-Poultry Protein Parcel on each plate, angled diagonally. On one side of the parcel, position the refreshing cucumber salad, letting some of it spill naturally onto the plate. Garnish with a mint leaf on top of the salad for a burst of colour. The meal should look well-composed but approachable, a feast of healthful goodness that is as pleasing to the eye as it is nourishing to the body. The golden brown chicken, vibrant green spinach and stark white feta cheese combination emphasise the contrast and complements the overall rustic charm of the meal. Enjoy this high protein, low carb adventure in a parcel.
