  • cloves garlic, finely grated
  • 2 tbsp. lemon zest, plus 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 c. finely grated Parmesan
  • 32 baby spinach leaves
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil, divided
  • 2 pt. grape or cherry tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar

Lay 8 spinach leaves on each chicken cutlet, then sprinkle garlic mixture on top. Roll chicken up and secure with a toothpick (place toothpick in parallel to seam to make turning roulades easier). Season chicken with 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper.

  3. While chicken roasts, toss together tomatoes, onion, red wine vinegar, remaining 2 Tbsp oil, and 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper. Serve with chicken.
