Chicken Parmesan is even more delicious when it's turned inside out and wrapped around a melty cheese center.

What You Need

oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened

pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained

1-1/4

cups KRAFT Shredded Low-Moisture Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese, divided

Tbsp. KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese, divided

small boneless skinless chicken breasts (1-1/2 lb.), pounded to 1/4-inch thickness

egg

RITZ Crackers, crushed (about 1/2 cup)

1-1/2

cups spaghetti sauce, heated

Make It

HEAT oven to 375ºF.

MIX cream cheese, spinach, 1 cup mozzarella and 3 Tbsp. Parmesan until blended; spread onto chicken. Starting at one short end of each breast, roll up chicken tightly. Secure with wooden toothpicks, if desired.

BEAT egg in shallow dish. Mix remaining Parmesan and cracker crumbs in separate shallow dish. Dip chicken in egg, then roll in crumb mixture to evenly coat. Place, seam sides down, in 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray.

BAKE 30 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF). Remove and discard toothpicks. Serve chicken topped with spaghetti sauce and remaining mozzarella.

Fantastic! Easy to make ahead for a quick bread and bake after work (for added bonus, if you refrigerate all day, you can remove the toothpicks before breading). Next time I make it I plan on trying to food save the leftovers and freeze with packets of breading. Also considering trying a different veggie like broccoli.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT. I couldn't stop eatting it. My kids and husband enjoyed it too. I would recommend it to everyone. I used thigh instead of breast.

Love this recipe. I use thin chicken breasts that you can find at most grocery stores instead of pounding it down and I prefer it with broccoli instead of spinach! :)

I spread pesto sauce over the chicken before adding the filling and it tasted better than the original one.

LOVE this chicken dish! My husband, who is fairly picky, loved this the first time I made it. I was nervous about making it, but did anyways and he requests it often. I've made it a couple times and it's always good. I think it would make for a great party meal. I felt it was fairly easy to put together, especially making it the second and third time, and once it's in the oven, there's no worrying about it. It's a beautiful dish and would love to make it for a party sometime. Delicious!
