• Take each breast and layer it with the spinach leaves first then the feta and the red pepper.
• Fold in the sides of each breast and roll up and secure with tooth picks.
• Cover with cling film and chill for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 325°F .
• In a large dish big enough to dip the chicken in beat the eggs.
• Next to the eggs, use another dish about the same size and combine bread crumbs and garlic dip mix.
• Put the oil in a skillet and allow to get hot.
• While the oil is heating, take the chicken and first dip into the egg till coated and then into the bread crumbs, making sure all surfaces are covered.
• When the oil is hot add the chicken to the skillet, one at a time, and turn using tongs, when each side has become lightly browned. Then place on a baking sheet. Repeat with each breast.
• When all the chicken has been browned, place baking sheet, and roast for about 25 minutes or till the internal temperature is 170°F or juices run clear.
• Enjoy.
