# Step-by-Step Directions:

03 - Rub chicken breasts on both sides with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
04 - In a medium bowl, combine herbed stuffing mix, chicken broth, melted butter, shallot, celery, and parsley. Mix until just moistened.
05 - Lay each chicken breast flat and evenly spread about a quarter of the stuffing mixture on top.
06 - Roll each breast tightly and secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
07 - Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for 1 minute. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, red pepper flakes, oregano, and thyme. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
08 - Place stuffed chicken roulades seam-side down in the baking dish. Pour the sauce evenly over the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until internal temperature reaches 74°C and chicken is golden brown.
