Steps:
- Place each chicken piece, boned side up, between 2 pieces of clear plastic wrap. Working from the center to the edges, pound lightly with the flat side of a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness. Remove plastic wrap. Sprinkle chicken with black pepper. Layer cheese, roasted red sweet pepper halves, and sage in the center of each breast. Fold in edges; roll up into a spiral, pressing the edges to seal. Roll in flour.
- In an 8-inch skillet heat the oil over medium heat. Cook chicken in hot oil about 5 minutes, turning to brown all sides. Remove from skillet.
- In the same skillet bring wine or broth to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 2 minutes or until 1/4 cup liquid remains. Return chicken to skillet. Cover and simmer for 8 to 9 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. To serve, spoon juices over chicken.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine 1 1/2 cup Italian cheese blend, garlic, basil, and oregano in a bowl. Combine Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs in a separate bowl.
- Cut one side of each chicken breast through the middle horizontally to within one-half inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book. Lightly pound chicken to flatten. Fill each chicken breast with Italian cheese blend mixture and close like a book over the filling. Coat the outside of each chicken breast with egg; press bread crumb mixture over egg layer to coat each chicken breast. Arrange chicken breasts in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Pour spaghetti sauce over cooked chicken; top with 1/4 cup Italian cheese blend. Bake until sauce is bubbling and cheese is melted, about 5 more minutes.

- Preheat the oven to 425F. Place a chicken breast on your cutting board and firmly lay your hand flat on top of it. Carefully slice the chicken breast, starting from the front of the breast and working your way to the back. Stop about 1/2" from the end of the breast to keep it in one piece. Open the chicken breast. Repeat with the other 3 breasts.
- Lay the cheese over one half of the butterflied chicken breast, then lay 2-3 basil leaves over the cheese, and finally top with a few tbsp of the sun-dried tomatoes. Fold the other side of the butterflied breast over the fillings. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Repeat with the other 3 breasts.
- If you'd like, secure the chicken breasts closed with toothpicks. Heat the sun-dried tomato oil over medium-high heat in a large oven-proof skillet. Place the chicken breasts into the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until golden, then pour the broth and vinegar into the skillet.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the chicken is completely cooked through and the cheese is melty. Serve the chicken with the sauce from the skillet spooned over top.
