This recipe is simple but so incredibly flavorful and mouth watering. Growing up in an Italian household my Mother always made huge family Sunday dinners so we would have a protein, a huge bowl of pasta, veggie, salad, and dessert of course. We always had a large crowd because me and my 2 sisters invited a friend or boyfriend or both. Not sure how my Mom did it every Sunday but our dinners we're always soooo YUMM. This was one of the first dishes I learned how to make when I was a teenager. It's ALWAYS a HUGE hit so enjoy. Mangia!!

How To Make rolled chicken stuffed with parmesan and chives

Step 1

Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter and spoon 1/2 tablespoon in the middle of each flattened chicken breast. Place 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon of dried chives on top of the butter.

Step 2

Roll up the stuffed chicken and carefully coat with flour that is seasoned with salt and pepper, then dip into egg and then bread crumbs. Set aside.
Step 3

Melt remaining 4 tablespoons of butter into large saucepan and add the 4 stuffed chicken breasts, crease side down.
Step 4

Saute on medium low, turning occasionally, for approximately 45 minutes or until juices from chicken run clear.
Step 5

Once you remove chicken from pan, cover and let chicken rest for about 5 minutes so that juices do not run out and chicken stays moist. Spoon warm butter and juices from frying pan over chicken and serve.
