Chicken breasts are pounded thin, and stuffed with a mushroom and cream cheese mixture. The rolls are then coated with brown sugar and Dijon, and rolled in chopped nuts before baking.
INGREDIENTS (for 6 servings):
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Saute mushrooms until tender. Reduce heat to low, and stir in cream cheese until melted. Remove from heat.
Pound chicken breasts thin with a meat mallet. Spread with mushroom mixture, and roll up. In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and Dijon mustard. Press mustard mixture onto chicken. Roll chicken in chopped nuts. Place in a baking dish.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink, and juices run clear.
