Preparation Steps

1
Pound Cutlets & Roast Blistered Tomatoes

Trim twelve 6 oz. chicken cutlets, removing excess fat and sinew. Pound out between plastic sheets to ¼-inch thickness and refrigerate. In a bowl, toss 2 lbs. grape tomatoes, 1 tsp. mixed herbs (parsley, basil, thyme), ¼ tsp. RC Umami Sensations® Shiitake Mushroom Powder, salt, pepper, and 2 oz. vegetable oil. Roast in a 425°F oven until tomato skins just blister; chill under refrigeration.

2
Sauté Baby Portabellas & Form Roulades

Heat 1 oz. clarified butter in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 Tbsp. minced shallots and 1 tsp. minced garlic; sauté until garlic turns light golden. Add 2 lbs. sliced baby portabella mushrooms and cook until soft. Chill. Combine cooked mushrooms and roasted blistered grape tomatoes, portion evenly onto the center of each chilled chicken breast, fold chicken securely around filling to form 12 neat roulades, and chill.

3
Dredge, Sear & Oven Roast

Season stuffed roulades with salt and pepper, then dredge in gluten-free flour, shaking off excess. Sear in hot olive oil on all sides until golden. Transfer to sheet pans and bake in a preheated 350°F oven until internal temperature reaches 155°F–160°F. Remove and rest for 7 to 10 minutes (carryover heat will finish internal temp to 165°F).

4
Prepare White Wine Chicken Pan Sauce

In a saucepan, heat 1 oz. clarified butter and sauté 2 tsp. minced shallots until transparent. Add 8 oz. dry white wine and reduce volume by half over high heat. Add 1 pint prepared RC Gluten-Free Demi-Glace Sauce Mix and 1 pint prepared RC Hearty Foundations® Smart Sodium 400® Chicken Base. Simmer until reduced to nappe consistency, then strain through a fine chinoise.

5
Slice Roulades on Bias & Plate

Ladle warm strained Chicken Pan Sauce onto heated entree plates. Slice rested stuffed chicken roulades in half on a sharp bias to display the colorful tomato-mushroom center filling, set over the pan sauce, and serve immediately.

Chef Notes & Umami Flavor Architecture

Shiitake Mushroom Powder Enhancement: Tossing grape tomatoes before roasting with RC Umami Sensations® Shiitake Mushroom Powder introduces concentrated natural glutamates that bridge the earthiness of baby portabellas with sweet roasted tomato acidity.

Smart Sodium 400® Health Advantage: Utilizing RC Hearty Foundations® Smart Sodium 400® Chicken Base in combination with RC Gluten-Free Demi-Glace yields a rich, velvety pan sauce compliant with strict sodium-conscious healthcare and banquet dietary standards.

Banquet Chilling Rule: Always thoroughly chill both the roasted tomato mixture and sautéed mushrooms to 40°F before stuffing raw chicken cutlets to prevent premature surface protein coagulation along the interior roll seam.
