Ingredients

  •  artichoke hearts canned rinsed drained chopped
  • 0.3 teaspoon pepper black divided freshly ground
  • 1.5 teaspoons olive oil extravirgin
  • 0.3 cup basil fresh chopped
  • ounces goat cheese crumbled
  • 0.5 cup italian-seasoned breadcrumbs 
  • 1.5 tablespoons juice of lemon fresh
  • cups baby greens mixed
  •  bell pepper red rinsed drained chopped
  • 0.1 teaspoon salt 
  • 24 ounce chicken breast halves boneless skinless
  • quarts water 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • pot
  • plastic wrap
  • meat tenderizer

Directions

  1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir until well blended.
  2. Slice each breast half lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, other side. Open halves, laying breast flat.
  3. Place each breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet.
  4. Sprinkle chicken with salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
  5. Divide artichoke mixture into 4 equal portions; spoon each portion down center of each breast half, leaving a 1/2-inch border at each end. Fold sides over filling.
  6. Place a 2-foot-long sheet of heavy-duty plastic wrap on a work surface with 1 long side hanging over the counter's edge 2 inches.
  7. Place a stuffed breast half, seam side down, on the end farthest from you; tightly roll the chicken toward you, jelly-roll fashion. Twist the ends in opposite directions to form a cylinder. Tie plastic wrap in tight knots against the chicken on each end. Trim off excess wrap close to the knots.
  8. Place a second 2-foot-long sheet of heavy-duty plastic wrap on the work surface; place rolled chicken on wrap, and repeat procedure. Repeat with remaining breast halves.
  9. Bring 3 quarts water to a boil in a large stockpot; add chicken. Simmer 15 minutes (do not boil), turning occasionally.
  10. Remove from water, and let stand 10 minutes before unwrapping and cutting into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
  11. Combine greens, juice, olive oil, and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl; toss well.
  12. Place about 1 cup greens mixture on each of 4 plates. Top each serving with 1 chicken breast half.
