Main Ingredients
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic (chopped)
  • 1.5 cups shredded zucchini
  • 0.25 cup Romano cheese
  • 3 oz part-skim shredded mozzarella
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 thin chicken cutlets (3 oz each)
  • 0.5 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1 lemon juice of lemon
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and fresh pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil non-stick spray

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Wash and dry chicken cutlets, season with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 450°F. Lightly spray a baking dish with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot, sauté the garlic for 1 minute until golden. Add shredded zucchini, 1/4 cup Romano cheese, salt, and pepper; sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Allow to cool, then mix in mozzarella cheese.
  3. Lay chicken cutlets on a working surface. Spread 3 tablespoons of zucchini mixture on each, then roll up loosely, seam side down.
  4. Combine breadcrumbs with remaining Romano cheese in one bowl; in a second bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Dip each chicken roll in lemon mixture, then in breadcrumbs, placing seam side down in a baking dish.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden. Serve immediately.
