Stuffed Chicken

Something I came up with..

Ingredients:

• 1/2 pound chicken
• 3/4 cup peas
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• Spices
• Flour
• Egg white
• Seasoned bread crumbs

Directions:

So I did not actually measure how much I used. You just have to guess while making it. You will know its right by just looking at it.

1. Cook peas according to directions on bag
2. Mix peas and ricotta cheese such that there is an even distribution of peas and cheese. Add spices to flavor the mix (ginger, garlic powder, etc.)
3. Clean chicken. At the part where its thickest start making a cut. You will now have a little pocket.
4. Stuff mix in the pocket.
5. Heat some oil on the stove.
6. Flour the chicken. Then smear egg white on both sides.
7. You can either dip the chicken in season bread crumbs or you can mix the seasoned bread crumbs with more spices! I recommend the latter.
8. Cook chicken on stove. I needed around 6 minutes on both sides on medium heat.

Tips:

• You can also use mashed potatoes.
• If you used mashed potatoes add some shredded Parmesan cheese.
