Jamie Oliver's "My old man's best chicken" adaptation

Last night I made a very easy chicken recipe adapted from one of Jamie Oliver's cookbook. It is so easy I just have to share this with you! This is what I made.Chicken breast stuffed with Zucchini, Spinach, Hot Genoa salami and Provolone. The Chicken breast is then encased in some pastry.
In Jamie's original recipe he just used mushrooms for the center of the chicken.
The steps are... fry some garlic with some olive oil. Chop up zucchini, spinach, salami and put into the fried garlic. Set mixture aside. Cut Chicken breast lengthwise, stuff with warm garlic mixture and put a piece of provolone into the pocket. Use some Pilsbury breadstick rolls dough wrap around chicken breast to keep the pocket closed. Put in casserole dish and do a light egg wash over the pastry dough. Bake in a preheated oven (400 F) for 30 minutes.

You can make this wine, grainy mustard and heavy cream sauce.. but mine really tasted gross... Instead we used some Bistos gravy bought from the Brit shop.
Ta da!!! Happy cooking everyone =)
