Preparation

Step 1

To make the filling, heat the butter in a skillet over moderate heat and saute the onion until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. Combine with the other filling ingredients in a bowl and stir, mashing with the back of the spoon, until thoroughly combined. Set aside.

Season the chicken with salt and pepper and spread with the gorgonzola mixture, dividing it evenly between the cutlets. Roll the cutlets up, secure with toothpicks, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Heat the butter in a large oven-proof skillet over high heat. Dredge the rolled cutlets lightly with flour cook in the butter until lightly browned on all sides. Transfer the skillet to a preheated 400F (200C) oven and cook until the internal temperature reads 160F (70C) on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 minutes. Slice into medallions to serve if desired. Serves 4 to 6.
