SPINACH AND RICOTTA-STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH LEMONY WHITE WINE SAUCE
Steps:
- Make the Stuffing: In a bowl, combine the spinach, ricotta, Gorgonzola, and bacon and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Add the egg, mix well, and set aside.
- Make the Sauce: Combine the wine and stock in a non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce to a sauce-like consistency. Whisk in the mustard, lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
- Make the Chicken: Place each chicken breast between 2 doubled-up sheets of plastic wrap, and pound to an even 1/4-inch thickness with a meat-pounder or rolling pin. Divide the stuffing between the breasts, mounding it along the center of each. Fold the bottom edge of each breast over the stuffing, fold in the sides, and roll forward until completely wrapped, to form a tight rolled package. Secure each flap with a toothpick. Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Cover the skillet, turn the heat down to low, and cook until just cooked through, about 5 minutes more.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, pour the sauce into the skillet over high heat and cook, stirring and scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon.
- Slice the chicken into medallions, divide among plates, and spoon some of the sauce over each. Garnish with parsley and erve immediately.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to cut the chicken breasts and other ingredients.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so it's important to cook them just until they are cooked through. An instant-read thermometer is a helpful tool for checking the internal temperature of the chicken.
- Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The creamy wine sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken breasts. If it's too thin, you can add a little cornstarch or flour to thicken it up.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's cooked. The chicken will be most tender and juicy when it's fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Stuffed chicken breasts with a creamy wine sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that's perfect for a special occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
