PUBLIX PERFECT PANKO CHICKEN WITH HUMMUS
I haven't made this (yet), but at Publix grocery stores (FL, GA and SC), they have a feature called Apron's Simple Meals and they provide recipe cards and have a kiosk where they cook a different meal idea each week. I don't live in FL any more, but while I have been down visiting my mom, this was the feature. It tasted very good. The cilantro/jalapeno hummus may not be available everywhere as it was their deli brand, but I'm sure you could use a variation.

Steps:
- Spread a piece of plastic wrap out over a cutting board and lay a chicken breast down. Fold a layer of the plastic wrap over it and pound the breast out until it's much thinner. Repeat with the other breast.
- Sprinkle a little seasoning mix and lay down some spinach leaves on each flattened piece of chicken. Divide the hummus between the breasts. Sprinkle each with a little Parmesan.
- Roll up, and sprinkle each chicken roll-up with some salt, pepper, a little more seasoning mix and some Parmesan cheese. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Then, add the chicken, seasoned and parmed side down. Go ahead and season the side facing up and let it brown for a couple of minutes.
- Flip it over and brown the second side. Add the orange juice and broth to the pan and reduce the heat to medium. Cover partially and let cook until the chicken is done (cut open or wait until a thermometer says 165 degrees - make sure you are checking the hummus temperature too).
- Serve the chicken with orange sauce drizzled over it.

- Add flavorings to taste: Hummus is a versatile dish that can be flavored with a variety of ingredients, such as garlic, lemon juice, tahini, and cumin. Experiment until you find a combination that you like.
- Serve hummus with a variety of accompaniments: Hummus can be served with pita bread, vegetables, crackers, or chips. It can also be used as a sandwich spread or dip.
