Chicken San Souci

serves 4, can easily be doubled

4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 c. sour cream
1 1/2 t. worcestershire sauce
1/4 t. cayenne pepper
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 T. McCormick's Grill Mates Montreal Chicken Seasoning
dash of soy sauce
4 pats of butter
1 c. seasoned Italian bread crumbs mixed with 1/2 c. Parmesan cheese

Butterfly each breast, place in a large glass pan and in a bowl mix the sour cream, worcestershire sauce, McCormick's Montreal Chicken seasoning and soy sauce. Pour over the chicken and marinate overnight.

Next day, remove chicken from marinade, shake off any excess, place a pat of butter in the middle and roll up. Roll in bread crumbs and fit snugly in a 8-inch square baking pan. Bake for 1 hour at 325.

BAKED BROCCOLI & SPINACH
serves 6-8

3 Tbsp. olive oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen chopped spinach, drained and thawed
2 cups fresh raw broccoli, chopped coarse
1/2 cup butter
3 Tbsp. flour
2 cups small curd cottage cheese
8 oz. grated cheddar
3 eggs, slightly beaten
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350F. Heat 3 Tbsp. olive oil in a skillet and saute onion and garlic, when wilted and golden, add spinach and broccoli and blend well. Cool and set aside.

Melt butter in a saucepan and when melted add the flour to form a roux: stir in the flour until it becomes a paste, sort of thick, always stirring (I use a whisk for smoothness). Add the roux to the vegetable mixture along with the cheeses, eggs and salt and pepper; mix well. Pour into a casserole dish. Bake 45 minutes at 350.

**To dress up this dish, remove dish from oven after 30 minutes and arrange sliced tomatoes on top, sprinkle with Parmesan and bake another 15 minutes YUM!!
