Recipe Instructions

Rinse chicken and pat dry. Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Working from center to the edges, pound lightly with the flat side of a meat mallet to 1/8-inch thickness. Set aside.

In a small mixing bowl stir together mushrooms, bread crumbs, sage, marjoram, garlic salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons chicken broth. Spoon one-fourth of the mixture onto the short end of each chicken breast. Fold in long sides of chicken and roll up into a spiral, starting from the short edge. Secure with wooden toothpicks. Place in a 4- or 6-quart pressure cooker and add 1/2 cup chicken broth or stock.

Lock lid in place. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe (if you have a first-generation cooker). Over high heat, bring cooker up to pressure. Reduce heat just enough to maintain pressure and pressure regulator rocks gently; cook for 5 minutes.

Quick-release the pressure. Carefully remove lid. Remove chicken to a serving platter; keep warm.

For sauce, strain liquid in cooker through a sieve; return liquid to cooker. In a small bowl stir together cornstarch and wine. Add to liquid in cooker. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Serve sauce over chicken.
