Steps:
- Lay a long piece of plastic wrap over your cutting board and tuck it underneath the sides of the board. (Covering the chicken with the plastic will also keep the mess down when you pound with the meat mallet.) The chicken breasts should be placed on the covered cutting board, skin side down, with enough space between them so they can lay flat after you "butterfly" them. To make the butterfly cut, carefully slice open (without slicing the chicken all the way through) and spread the flesh of the chicken out so you will be able to pound it out into a single thin piece on which you will place stuffing and then roll up. Season the breasts with salt and pepper. Then put another length of plastic wrap over the seasoned chicken breasts and flatten with meat mallet to integrate the seasoning into the chicken. Pound chicken thin.
- Lay 1 slice of prosciutto ham on each breast. Add 3 leaves of spinach and 4 pieces of sun-dried tomatoes on each breast. Fold in each end and roll tightly. Place on sheet tray and freeze until firm. (It does not have to be frozen completely hard, but this makes it easier to handle when breading.)
- Preheat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- While the chicken roulade is hardening in the freezer, prepare the tomato demi-glace. In a saucepan, saute garlic and then deglaze the pan with the wine. Add stock and tomato puree. Boil over medium heat until reduced by half. Add the demi-glace (brown sauce) and let simmer until thickened ("medium thickness").
- When the chicken is firm, set up a breading station. Whisk together 3 eggs and 1 cup of the half-and-half for the egg wash. (Begin with this amount and whisk more together if needed.) Then set up a bowl each of: flour, then egg wash, and then Italian bread crumbs. Evenly coat rolled frozen chicken with flour (not too much or bread crumbs won't stick). Dip floured rolled chicken into egg wash, then into bread crumbs. In a deep-fat fryer, lightly fry until golden brown. Finish in the oven for 15 minutes until completely cooked through. Remove from oven and let rest.
- Boil the potatoes until tender. Then mash the potatoes and whip chopped chives, butter, salt and freshly ground pepper into the potatoes with a beater.
- Re-heat the tomato demi-glace and to finish remove from heat, and immediately whisk in fresh thyme and 1 tablespoon butter.
- Slice each chicken roll to expose the stuffed interior. Place mashed potatoes in center of each plate, drizzle white truffle oil over the potatoes. Lay chicken roulade over potatoes.
SPINACH ROULADE
A beautiful dish my mother has made often and it's always been a favorite. A cheesy spinach mixture rolled up in a cheese souffle, from the famous vegetarian Greens Restaurant in San Francisco. The recipe calls for ricotta, but I'm thinking unless you use fresh ricotta there won't be much flavor in the filling. So I plan on adding a few extra ingredients to give it some more umph. Like any ricotta and spinach mixture, it's easy to add onto!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400. Line a 10x15 baking sheet with parchment paper. Put a few dabs of butter on the pan to help anchor the paper then lightly butter and flour the paper, knocking off any extra flour.
- Separate the yolks and whites. Lightly beat the yolks and set them aside. Make a rue by melting the butter, add the flour, stirring constantly then whisk in milk. Cook another 3 minutes, remove from heat and add salt and pepper.
- Gradually whisk some of the mixture into the yolks to warm them, then return everything to the pot to finish combining.
- In a large bowl whisk or beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt (or cream of tartar) until they form smooth peaks.
- Stir about ¼ of the whites and ½ of cheese into the milk mixture, then gently fold in the rest of the whites.
- Pour soufflé mixture on the baking sheet spreading to all corners. Sprinkle to rest of the cheese over the surface. Bake until the top is nicely browned and puffed, about 15 minutes. Remove soufflé from the oven and let it cool. Turn over onto the counter and remove parchment paper. Use a tea towel under to help roll it later.
- Prepare soufflé base and set aside. Wash and cook spinach, seasoned with salt. Drain. Melt butter and cook onion. Squeeze water out of spinach and chop finely. Add to onions. Cook another few minutes.
- Thin ricotta with enough milk until soft and pliable and season with nutmeg and pepper. Preheat the oven to 400. Spread the ricotta over the soufflé and top with spinach. (This is where I plan on adding a bit more. Likely basil, gruyere cheese, sundried tomato and toasted pine nuts.).
- Roll the soufflé, short end first. Transfer to a greased baking sheet, end down to prevent unrolling. Brush the top with cream. Bake lightly covered for 25 minutes
- To serve, ladle sauce on plate and set sliced piece over sauce.

CHICKEN ROULADE
I just got this in an email from Prevention and am posting here for safekeeping. They say "Stuffed with sundried tomatoes, baby spinach, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese, this colorful combo brightens up basic chicken cutlets. Other greens such as arugula, chard, and baby kale can take the place of spinach in this dish."

Steps:
- Place the spinach in a large nonstick skillet with the washing water clinging to the leaves or a tablespoon or two of water if dried. Cover and cook for 2 minutes, tossing occasionally, or until wilted. Drain and press firmly with the back of a spoon or squeeze to remove excess moisture. There should be 1/2 cup spinach. Wipe out the skillet.
- Meanwhile, in a medium nonstick skillet, combine the onion, 1 teaspoon oil, garlic, red-pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon water. Turn the heat to medium. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the onion sizzles. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, stirring once, for about 3 minutes, or until softened. In a small bowl, combine the onion mixture, cheese, and spinach. Stir to mix. Set aside.
- Sprinkle the tomatoes evenly on the smooth side of the cutlets.
- Divide the spinach mixture among the cutlets. Spread to the edges of 3 sides, leaving about 1" at the narrow tip free of spinach mixture. Loosely roll up the chicken, ending with the narrow tip, and secure with wooden picks.
- Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the large skillet and set over medium heat. Place the chicken in the pan. Cook, turning, for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown on all sides. Add the broth or wine, cover, and cook over low heat for about 7 minutes. Uncover and transfer chicken to a serving platter. Cover with foil to keep warm.
- Boil the skillet juices for about 5 minutes, or until reduced to a glaze. Diagonally slice the chicken into 1"-thick pieces. Drizzle with pan juices and serve.
