Sausage-Stuffed Chicken Breasts

“This recipe is derived from an old family recipe for Pheasant Kiev, adjusted for my wife and children who will not eat wild game. Placing the chicken rolls on a broiling pan allows the juices to drain off and keeps the breasts from getting soggy.”

Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
