Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
  • 4 tablespoons Cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 2 cups Mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Chicken stock
  • 0.5 cup Dry white wine
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and gently pound them to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch using a meat mallet.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, minced garlic, grated Parmesan, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

Step 4

Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture onto each chicken breast. Top with a few spinach leaves.

Step 5

Carefully roll each chicken breast tightly, securing it with toothpicks or kitchen twine if needed.

Step 6

Heat the olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken roulades on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Step 7

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 8

While the chicken is baking, prepare the mushroom sauce. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the sliced mushrooms until golden and soft, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 9

Deglaze the saucepan with the white wine, stirring to loosen any browned bits, and let it simmer for 2 minutes.

Step 10

Add the chicken stock, heavy cream, and fresh thyme to the mushrooms. Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

Step 11

Season the sauce with additional salt and pepper to taste.

Step 12

Remove the roulades from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before removing the toothpicks or twine.

Step 13

Slice the chicken roulades into 1-inch pieces and arrange them on a serving platter. Drizzle the mushroom sauce over the top or serve it on the side.

Step 14

Garnish with additional fresh thyme or grated Parmesan if desired. Serve warm and enjoy this elegant dish!
