If you're looking for something a little special to do with boneless chicken breasts, this just might be the recipe to try. Chicken breasts are stuffed with a mixture of mushrooms, mozzarella cheese, and other vegetables. A can of tomato soup is the sauce for these chicken breasts, but feel free to use a bechamel sauce or mushroom sauce instead.
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour
Yield: Serves 6
Ingredients:
- 6 boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 4 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 1 rib celery, thinly sliced
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons fine dry breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons grated parmesan cheese
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- salt and pepper
- 1 can (10 1/2 ounces) condensed tomato soup
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon leaf basil, crumbled
Preparation:
Place chicken pieces between sheets of plastic wax; gently pound with a meat mallet to flatten evenly. Be careful not to tear or break through.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil and butter; sauté onion slices, mushrooms, and celery until tender. Add egg, parsley, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Stir to blend well.
Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper; fill with even portions of the filling mixture. Roll up and secure with toothpicks. Arrange chicken breasts in a shallow 3-quart baking dish, spooning any extra filling around the chicken rolls. Mix soup with 1/2 cup water and the basil; pour over chicken.
