Chicken Rockefeller

So I'm pretty excited! I finally bought a food processor! I can't believe how many recipes I've stumbled onto that needed one, and trust me... You can't use a blender in it's place... It's just a disaster.
I bought a beautiful yellow KitchenAid food chopper/ processor on sale during Bay days at The Bay! $30 off that just makes me happy. Normally KitchenAid products are way out of my price point (and frankly Cuisinart has not made me happy in the past) so I was super excited to get this bad boy on sale!!

So naturally in my excitement and bliss of my new appliance I made another lovely purchase from TheShoppingChannel.com....

 This book has got to be one of the biggest recipe books I own now... It's huuuuuuge. There is everything you could ever imagine in here ! All categorized into different categories depending on what you might be craving that day. I intend to do as many of these recipes as humanly possible! The only thing I don't like about this book is each section's table of contents is just before the section begins, instead of at the front of the book all together so it's a bit of a search to find the section you want at first but when you do find what you're looking for you're set!

Tonight I was craving something with chicken... I decided on the Chicken Rockefeller!

2 Skinless boneless chicken breasts
2 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 cup bread crumbs

Coat both sides of the chicken breasts with olive oil and coat in bread crumbs. Place in a prepared baking dish and set aside. Discard any excess bread crumbs and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

1 handful of fresh Spinach, trimmed
1/2 an onion, quartered
1 tbsp butter, melted
1/2 tsp anise extract

In your food processor equipped with a metal blade, pulse the spinach and onion until finely chopped (approx. 20 pulses) Transfer to another bowl and add butter and anise extract.

2 slices of provolone cheese
fresh parsley for garnish

The recipe calls to spread 1/4 of this mixture over the chicken and to add the rest after it's baked... I completely forgot to do this and wasted a bit of my mixture :( next time I intend to put all of the mixture on before baking to ensure no waste

Spoon 1/4 of the mixture over each chicken breast. Top with cheese and parsley.

Bake in preheated oven until chicken is fully cooked (about 20 minutes). Transfer chicken onto serving plate and spread the rest of the mixture on top.

Enjoy!

This combination of flavors was something I had never tried before and I must say I really enjoyed this one. Gives me even more excitement to try more things in this book!
