Ingredients
-
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound total)
-
3/4 cup herb-seasoned stuffing mix
-
1 2-1/2-ounce jar mushroom stems and pieces, drained
-
1 tablespoon snipped fresh parsley
-
2 to 3 tablespoons chicken broth
-
1 tablespoon margarine or butter, melted
-
2 tablespoons cooking oil
-
3/4 cup chicken broth
-
3/4 cup half-and-half or light cream
-
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
-
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
-
2 cups corkscrew macaroni, cooked and drained
-
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
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.
