Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 7 teaspoon fresh sage finely chopped
  • 3 ounce gruyere cheese finely grated

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375F.  Line a baking pan with parchment paper. Butterfly each chicken breast. Place your knife along the side of the breast and use a sawing motion to carefully slice through the side, like opening a bagel. Be careful not to slice completely through the other side. Open the breast and lay flat.
  • Sandwich each chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap. Using a meat tenderizing mallet, pound each breast until it is flat and about ¼ inch thick. Sprinkle each side lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a medium sized skillet over medium heat. Add butter. When butter stops foaming, add onions to the skillet. Cook onions over medium-low heat until they caramelize, stirring frequently.
  • Add the white wine vinegar and stir, scraping up the browned bits. When the vinegar becomes syrupy, remove your pan from the heat. Add about 1/3 of the sage and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Lay out three pieces of twine and place the flattened chicken breast on top. Keeping the filling away from the edges, spread ½ of the onion sage mixture on each chicken breast. Sprinkle some grated cheese over each breast, reserving a smaller portion for later.
  • Roll each breast and secure tightly with twine or toothpicks.
  • Place in your baking pan and make sure they do not touch. Sprinkle reserved cheese and sage over the roulades.
  • Bake in preheated oven for about 35 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. If the top is not sufficiently brown, place chicken under the broiler for a few minutes at the end of cooking. Watch carefully as the cheese will brown quickly.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool about 5 minutes before slicing.  Remove twine or toothpicks from the roulades. Carefully slice in a crosswise fashion and serve.
