Ingredients:

Serving

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup fresh goat cheese (about 4 oz)
2 green onions, thinly sliced
3 basil leaves, shredded
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 egg, beaten to blend
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
2 tbsp butter, melted
1/3 cup butter
1/2 lb mushroom, sliced
1/3 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup chicken stock
2 -3 tbsp flour
salt and pepper

Directions:

For chicken: Preheat oven to 350°F.
Pound chicken between sheets of waxed paper to thickness of 1/4 inch using meat mallet.
Pat chicken dry.
Combine cheese, green onions and basil in small bowl.
Season with salt and pepper.
Spread cheese mixture lengthwise over half of each chicken piece.
Tuck short ends in.
Roll chicken up, starting at one long side, into tight cylinders.
Tie ends with string to secure or secure with a toothpick (my preference).
Dip chicken in egg, allowing excess to drip into bowl.
Roll in breadcrumbs, shaking off excess.
(Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Refrigerate.) Place chicken in 8-inch square baking dish.
Pour 2 tablespoons melted butter over.
Bake until cooked through, about 30 minutes.
For sauce: Meanwhile, melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat.
Add mushrooms and sauté until tender, about 8 minutes.
Add flour and stir until butter and flour are smooth.
Add wine and simmer 3 minutes.
Add stock and continue simmering about 3 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
Season sauce with salt and freshly ground pepper.
Remove string from chicken.
Cut rolls crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds.
Top with sauce and serve immediately.
