Steps:
- Cut about a 3-inch wide pocket into the thick side of each breast almost to the other side, but do not cut all the way through. Season both sides of each breast with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat oil & butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Turn the heat to medium.
- Place the spinach in the skillet and sauté the spinach about 30 seconds, just long enough to wilt but not burn. Dab the spinach on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
- In a medium bowl, mix the cheese and spinach until combined. Stuff the chicken breasts with the spinach/cheese mixture and secure the breasts with toothpicks.
- Place the breasts in the hot skillet and leave for 4 minutes or until the chicken turns golden brown. Carefully turn the breasts over and cook another 3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Reduce heat to low, add wine (if using), cover and cook another 3-5 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink in the middle. A meat thermometer should read 160°F when placed in the thickest part of the meat.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Pound chicken breasts until they are flat and can handle stuffing easily.
- In a saute pan, melt butter over medium heat.
- Add onion and cook until almost caramelized.
- Add 1/2 cup of wine, mushrooms and the spinach.
- Put a lid on the pan and let the spinach steam for approximately 3 minutes, or until the wine is gone.
- Add another 1/2 cup of wine and cook uncovered until the liquid is gone.
- Stir frequently to keep it from sticking.
- Add salt, pepper and basil, then taste.
- This is the time for the red pepper flakes if you feel it is needed.
- Cook for another minute.
- Grate cheeses. Place a healthy pinch of the cheese mixture on each chicken breast.
- Add between 1-2 tablespoons of mushroom mixture to each breast, depending on the size of the flattened breast.
- Roll the chicken breast and place them roll side down in a baking dish.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 400 degrees. Check to make sure the juices run clear.
- While the chicken is baking, add the rest of the wine to the leftover mushroom mixture and cook on high for a few minutes. You want to leave a little of the liquid this time.
- If you want more cheese, add the leftover cheese mixture to the top and bake until melted. Otherwise, set the rest of the cheese aside for something else.
- Serve with the mushroom sauce, and nice salad and homemade mashed potatoes.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a heavy skillet and add the chicken breasts, the mushrooms and the onions. Cook about 5 minutes over medium heat or until lightly browned. Turn the pieces and cook 5 minutes more, shaking the pan and turning the mushrooms and onions so they brown evenly. Remove chicken breasts, and keep them warm. Pour off fat from the pan.
- Add the rosemary and shallots and cook briefly, until wilted. Add the wine and cook, stirring and scraping to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the skillet.
- When the wine is almost reduced by half, blend in the chicken broth. Continue cooking and when the sauce is reduced by half, stir in the butter. Remove pan from stove immediately. Pour sauce over chicken, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.
