8 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 teaspoon salt - divided use
1/4 teaspoon pepper - divided use
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 pound fresh spinach, chopped
8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
3 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 cups Italian bread crumbs
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken broth
3/4 cup dry white wine
Juice if 1/2 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon capers
  1. Place chicken between two pieces of wax paper and gently pound until almost double in size. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper.
  2. In large frypan, place 2 tablespoons oil and heat to medium temperature. Add garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds.
  3. Add spinach and sauté until barely wilted; stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Remove mixture from frypan, drain, cool and divide into 8 parts.
  4. On each chicken breast, place 1 part of spinach mixture; sprinkle equal amounts of feta cheese evenly over chicken, roll up and fasten with toothpicks.
  5. In medium bowl, mix eggs and milk. In separate shallow bowl, place bread crumbs. Add chicken, first in egg mixture and then in bread crumbs, dredging to coat.
