Yummy Tasty Chicken Mock-Sausage !

This was something my friends made spur of the moment the other night. They saw it on a cooking show, and then we made it again Sunday night and I thought I would share it. It is something that is easy, healthy and fun to make. The Chicken tastes so good, because it is cooked with all it's juices. It is moist and quite Yummy!

Ingredients For Say 4 people

• Chicken Breasts 4
• Butter
• Spinach ( one package)
• Garlic 2 cloves
• Onion 1/2 of an onion

Sauce

• Butter
• Wondra or Flour
• White Wine 1 cup
• Chicken Stock 1 cup
• Tomatoe

I'm not one for exact measurments, i'm a pinch of that and dab of butter kind of girl ;) And it totally depends on how many people you are cooking for too.

First pound out some Chicken Breasts. Figure about 1 breast per person.






Then Saute in a pan onions, garlic with butter once they have cooked (onions translucenty) add the Spinach. You don't want to over cook the spinach, just so that it's just blanched :) Set aside in a bowl. You can salt or season the spinach mixture just a bit too!




Now Comes the fun part!

Lay out a piece of saran wrap, and I'd highly suggest using the "Good" brand ie the one from CostCo or SaranWrap Blue and Yellow box :) Make sure it is longer than the chicken breast so you can tie knots in it.

Put a bit of the spinach mixture on the chicken...

And then Start Rolling it up. Try and keep it tight as possible.

Once it's rolled, Tie a Knot in each end.

The Larger or Wider the chicken breasts are the better/prettier they turn out...Ours this time we kind of small so you can see some of the spinach, but not to worry it will still taste just as good. :) But something to keep in mind if you are making it for a dinner part or something.

At some point before you start rolling up your chicken,
get a deep pan with a lid started with some water boiling.

Once your water is "just boiling" carefully drop the Chicken in the water.
Cook them in the boiling water w/ the lid on for about 11 minutes.

While the Chicken is cooking you can start your sauce, Melt a little butter in your pan (you can use the pan from the spinach), sprinkle Wondra on to make a Rue, let it brown, then add your wine and chicken stock, salt or season to taste.

We like to add some diced tomatoes to the sauce, makes it fresh and tasty!

After They are Cooked...
Remove them from the water and cut off the End, and Pull/Slide the Saran Wrap off.

Slice like Sushi....

Then Serve with Sauce and Enjoy!
