About
Chicken breasts can be so blah. I don’t know about you, but there’s only so many grilled chicken breasts I can take before I start going batty. Sometimes you gotta switch things up to make them interesting again! These chicken roulades are a great way to do that! Chicken roulade is a fancy way of saying a chicken roll up, which is precisely what these are. Chicken pinwheels filled with tender spinach, tangy feta and sweet sun dried tomatoes, does it get better than that? I think not. These are easy enough for a weeknight dinner, yet fancy enough for dinner guests. Break your chicken breasts free from monotony and make this recipe. You can thank me later.
