Cordon Bleu Rollups with Honey Mustard Wine sauce

Directions

1. To Marinate: Mix 2 cups wine, tarragon, parsley and oil in a nonporous glass dish or bowl and. Add chicken, and toss to coat. Cover dish or bowl, and refrigerate to marinate for at least 4 hours.
2. Remove chicken from marinade, and pour marinade into a large skillet over medium high heat. Cut chicken breasts in half vertically and quickly flatten each piece to 1/2 inch thickness with a meat mallet. Layer each piece a slice of cheese, slice of ham, and a sprinkle of brown sugar. Roll and secure with toothpicks, then brown in skillet with marinade.
3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
4. Place browned rollups in a 9x13 inch baking dish and pour a small amount of marinade over chicken, reserving at least 3 tablespoons in the skillet. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper to taste and a small amount of brown sugar.
5. Bake chicken rollups in preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until cooked through and chicken juices run clear.
6. To Make Sauce: Meanwhile, add flour to skillet with reserved marinade. Add 2 cups wine, stirring constantly, letting sauce thicken. Then stir in mustard, honey, a bit of brown sugar and horseradish. Season with salt and pepper to taste, heat through and serve with chicken rollups.

There shouldn't be NEAR that amo..." See moreunt of wine for the sauce--more like a couple of tablespoons. The base of the sauce shouldn't be wine, but instead chicken broth, water, or even apple juice. The roll-ups themselves are very tasty--the brown sugar added great flavor. To continue this flavor through the meal, I made it with mashed sweet potatoes with brown sugar."

"This was just ok. I omitted the brown sugar. I poured all but 3T of marinade over chicken when cooking and the sauce that it made while cooking and the sauce I made stove top (honey, mustard, wine) ..." See morewere completely different. The two mixed ok...but the honey, mustard, wine sauce had a strange flavor. This recipie needs some work before it is "perfected"."
