Leaving 1\/2-inch border, spread spinach mixture over bottom halves of chicken breasts; roll chicken around filling to enclose and secure with toothpicks. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.

\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4.<\/span>In same skillet, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds or until fragrant, stirring frequently. Add stock and lemon juice; increase heat to medium-high and cook 4 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half, stirring occasionally. Makes about 1\/3 cup.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5.<\/span>Serve chicken drizzled with sauce and sprinkled with chives, if desired.
