How to Make Chicken Wrapped Sausages With Mushroom Tomato Sauce

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
  2. Add 1 pound of Italian sausages and cook until cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove and let cool completely.
  3. Remove sausage casings.
  4. Place 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/4-inch thickness.
  5. Wrap 1 flattened chicken breast around each sausage, securing with toothpicks.
  6. Melt 1/3 cup (8 tablespoons) butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  7. Add chicken-wrapped sausages and brown on all sides.
  8. Add 1/2 cup dry white wine, salt, and pepper to taste.
  9. Reduce heat to medium; cook, turning frequently, until chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F), about 10-15 minutes.

  14. Add 1 medium onion, 2 scallions (white and green parts), and 2 cloves garlic, minced, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Do not brown.
  15. Add 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced, 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped, 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper to taste.
