How To Make tuscan chicken rolls with pork stuffing
-
Step 1Place the chicken between 2 sheets of wax paper. Flatten to 1/4 inch thickness, using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
-
Step 2Combine the ground pork, onion, and garlic in a large skillet. Cook over medium heat until the meat is browned, stirring to crumble the meat; drain.
-
Step 3Combine the pork mixture, bread crumbs, and the next 4 ingredients; stir well.
-
Step 4Spoon about 1/3 cup pork mixture over the center of each chicken breast half.
-
Step 5Roll up the chicken jellyroll fashion, starting with the short end; secure with wooden picks. Place the chicken in a lightly greased 11 x 7 x 1 1/2 inch baking dish; brush the chicken with melted butter. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt evenly over the chicken; pour wine over the chicken.
-
Step 6Bake, uncovered, at 400º for 40 minutes or until the chicken is done.
-
Step 7Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, reserving the liquid. Set aside and keep warm.
-
Step 8Combine the corn starch and water in a small saucepan; stir in the reserved liquid and bouillon. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil 1 minute, stirring constantly.
-
Step 9Pour the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
