Directions
1.
Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, lightly pound the chicken pieces to form 1/8-inch-thick rectangles.
2.
Toss together stuffing mix, mushrooms, parsley, and dash pepper. Toss with the 2 to 3 tablespoons broth and the margarine or butter. Spoon one-fourth of mixture onto small end of each chicken breast. Fold in long sides of chicken and roll up into a spiral, starting from the short edge. Secure with wooden toothpicks.
3.
In a medium skillet brown chicken on all sides in hot oil. Add the 3/4 cup broth and the sage; bring to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, about 15 minutes or until no longer pink, turning rolls halfway through cooking. Remove chicken rolls; keep warm. Stir cream into flour; add to drippings. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly; cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir in chives. Return chicken to pan; heat through. Serve over macaroni. Makes 4 servings.
