    Spinach-Ricotta Stuffing

    Recipe By : Irma S. Rombauer, Ethan Becker, and Marion Rombauer Becker
    Serving Size : 2 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Stuffings

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1 bunch spinach (12 oz) -- trimmed, washed
    -- and coarsely chopped
    or
    1 bag spinach (10 oz) -- trimmed, washed
    -- and coarsely chopped
    or
    1 box frozen spinach 10 oz) -- thawed
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    1/2 cup onions -- finely chopped
    1 teaspoon minced garlic
    1 cup ricotta cheese
    1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs from day-old bread
    2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
    2 teaspoons olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1 pinch nutmeg -- freshly grated
    or
    1 pinch ground nutmeg

    Heat in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat the spinach until wilted. (If substituting frozen spinach, thaw a 10-ounce box of frozen spinach, squeeze it to remove excess liquid, chop coarsely, then toss with the breadcrumbs and ricotta cheese.) Remove from the heat. When the spinach is cool enough to handle, squeeze out the excess liquid.

    Return the pan to medium heat and heat the oil. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

    Combine the spinach and sauteed vegetables in a large bowl and toss with remaining ingredients. Stuff this mixture under the skins of chicken pieces or of a whole, butterflied, flattened bird.
