    2                    Whole chicken breasts*
                         Salt, pepper
      1/2   c            Fine dry bread crumbs
      1/2   c            Butter or margarine
    2       lb           Spinach -- cleaned and stemmed
    1       c            Minced mushrooms
                         Whole mushrooms (optional)
 
   *Note: chicken breasts should be boned and split.
   Season chicken to taste with salt and pepper. Roll in bread crumbs and
   saute in 4 tablespoons butter in skillet until cooked through. Meanwhile,
   blanch spinach in boiling water 1 minute. Drain. Brown half of remaining
   butter in another skillet and saute spinach until just tender. Remove
   chicken from pan and add remaining butter. Add minced mushrooms and saute
   until light brown. Place spinach on platter. Arrange chicken breasts over
   spinach and cover with mushrooms. Drizzle butter remaining in pan over
   chicken. Garnish with whole mushrooms, if desired.
