Steps:

  • 1. The Mushrooms should finely chopped. The chicken breasts should be boned and skinless, halved (8 pieces) and pounded flat. Seasoned bread crumbs may also be used. 2. Preheat the oven to 350 f. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet. 3. Add the mushrooms (finely chopped), salt and pepper and cook, stiring often until the mushrooms turn very dark and absorb all the butter.

Divide the mushroom stuffing into 8 portions and place a portion of the stuffing in the center of each piece of chicken after sprinkling cheese on the meat. Roll the chicken around the stuffing and place, seam side down, in a buttered shallow casserole/ baking dish. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and brush over the chicken. Sprinkle with the remaining 3/4 cup of bread crumbs until all the pieces are covered. Mix the greek yogurt with the heated chicken broth and pour over the chicken. Bake for 45-60
