This past Friday I cooked chicken cutlets. My family likes them the easy, simple way, which a restaurant would call Chicken Milanese (my family is from the Milan area of Italy). Milanese is anything that is cooked with a lemon/garlic sauce. Very simple ingredients, very simple flavors, but oh so yummy.
Today I had left over chicken cutlets. I wanted to have them for dinner, but how should I serve them? I didn't want to eat them the same way we ate them on Friday. So I looked around the fridge and pulled out a container of fresh baby spinach, half of a hunk of fresh mozzarella and a tomato. What could I do with these for a simple, clean dinner. Here is what I decided:
I took the spinach and sauteed it for about 2 minutes in a bit of olive oil and 2 cloves of garlic. I put the cutlets in a baking dish, and places a small amount of the mozz on top of each cutlet. I cut up the tomato into chucks and added that too. Then the spinach, garlic and all the juice over the top of everything. I sprinkled a bit of chicken broth in the pan and placed it in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
Enjoy!!
Love,

This looks great (and easy!)!!
