Trying to get creative here....

Baltimore, MD(Zone 7a)

Please--give me your input......

I bought 2 fat, boneless chicken Breast pieces today on clearance (YES! I do that!)...at Safeway.

Now my mind is spinning with what I may want to do with it that is a bit different--but yummy.
So far--here is my plan. For whatever it is worth.....Tell me what you think.....

--Will slice the breasts really thin and then pound them even thinner between layers of plastic wrap.
--Will fry them up, for a few minutes, in butter (Oil??) , salt and pepper and Onion Powder.
--Thinking of using Phylo dough as a wrap here. Or--as square "pockets". My imagination is working........hmmm....
--I have a lot of home-made Basil Pesto, so would like to use some of it up here...somehow.
--I could: Fry up a lot of sweet onions to the caramelized state--mix in some of the Pesto and, maybe, some
wilted Spinach (yes?--No?..) and wrap it all up in the Phylo dough and bake it for whatever time suggested.
(Question--Should Phylo dough be deep fried??? Or baked??? I have never worked with it.)
--I could, also, incorporate some Stove Top Chicken flavored stuffing mix--but that would not fit too well in my plan...
--Would any kind of cheese go well with this? like-maybe--Feta? Mozzarella? Ay other veggies?

I am visualizing several yummy lunches here.....kind of like some kind of baked wraps/finger food.
Puffy with the Phylo dough...Drool!....

I find plain chicken breast boring. Too dry! The only way I like it is in Chicken salad.

Does my "Plan" have any promise here?????

Thanks for being a part of my fantasy meal. Gita
