Zone Diet Recipe : Chicken Florentine
Ingredients for Chicken Florentine
3 oz. chicken breast cutlets [3P]
1 teaspoon olive oil [3F]
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms [1/2C]
1/2 cup chopped onions [1/2C]
1 cup frozen chopped spinach
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
1 Apple [2C]
Preparation Method for Chicken Florentine
Cook spinach according to package directions. Drain well. Put drained spinach between paper towels and remove extra moisture by pressing with spatula. Place chicken cutlets and onion in a medium sized saucepan. Add enough water to cover and cook covered over medium low heat until just white throughout, about 15 minutes for thin cutlets. In a non-stick pan, sauté mushrooms in olive oil until tender, about five minutes. Put spinach on the bottom of a broil safe baking dish. Sprinkle with nutmeg and pepper. Arrange chicken in a single layer over spinach. Top with mushrooms. Sprinkle with cheese. Broil for one or two minutes until cheese melts.
