Ingredients
- 1½ lb chicken tenders
- 1 pkg frozen spinach (10 oz)
- ½ C butter, melted (1 stick or 4 oz)
- ½ C seasoned breadcrumbs
- ½ C plain breadcrumbs
- ¼ C Parmesan, grated
- ¼ tsp Tabasco sauce
- ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- ½ tsp thyme
- ½ tsp minced garlic

Directions
- Remove the central tendon from the chicken breast tenders and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, hot sauce and rice wine and marinate for 2-12 hours.
- Heat olive oil and butter until very hot and brown the chicken pieces on both sides. The intention is to brown the chicken, not cook it - it will be cooked through in the oven.
- Remove the chicken to 9x13" pan and allow to rest while you prepare the spinach dressing.
- Prepare spinach according to package directions and drain. Add butter, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic, seasonings and eggs and mix well.
- Top the chicken with the spinach dressing and bake @400° for 30 minutes
