- Comments: An herbed spinach and cheese mix is stuffed under the skin of plump chicken breasts, creating a dish which's perfect for a dinner party or possibly a special romantic dinner. The skin is needed to encase the stuffing in the chicken breasts, but you may wish to remove it before eating to help reduce calories and fat grams.
