Chicken, Asparagus and Goat Cheese Rolls

The other night we had an impromptu guest for dinner.  I didn't have enough of what I had planned to make for 3 people, so I had to get creative.  I came up with this simple, healthy and delicious chicken recipe that I am excited to share with you.  My taste testers gave it 2 thumbs up!

Ingredients:
4 - 5oz      Chicken Breasts
1 bundle   Asparagus
4oz.          Goat Cheese
Salt & Pepper
Toothpicks
4oz.          Parmesan Cheese, Grated
Cooking Spray


Directions:
1.  Preheat oven to 375°F.  Spray baking sheet with cooking spray.
2.  Place chicken breasts between plastic wrap and pound to 1/2" thickness.  Sprinkle chicken with salty and pepper.  Crumble 1oz. of goat cheese on each chicken breast.  Take 3-4 asparagus spears and roll chicken around asparagus securing with 2 toothpicks.  Place chicken roll ups on baking.  Spray chicken roll ups with cooking spray and sprinkle a little more salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes.
3.  Sprinkle each roll up with 1oz. parmesan cheese and broil for 10 more minutes until golden brown and chicken registers at 160°F.
4. Remove chicken and serve.


Simple, low carb and delicious!

I hope you enjoy this as much as we did :).
