I loved the ricotta and spinach filling inside the crunchy panko crusted chicken roll-ups topped with tangy marinara, gooey mozzarella, tomato, and basil. The chicken was tender and juicy and the filling was creamy and flavorful. We all loved the chicken and it paired nicely with the Steamed Artichokes and some gnocchi topped with marinara. In bowl, mix spinach mixture, ricotta, mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, egg yolk, salt, nutmeg and pepper.
