Start with the rice risoto:

Now the chicken:
Prepare the filling for the chicken, saute the onios in the canola oil, add mushrooms and red pepper to the mix, then add the spinach and cook until wilted. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Pound your chicken breast thin so as to contain the filling when rolled. (about 1/4 inch thick, no thicker) season the chicken, add the filling, roll and secure with toothpicks. Bake the roll at 350 degrees for about 5 mins or until the roll is firm and chicken is cooked, juices should be bubbling out of the roll.
Cut the roll into 10 pieces and serve five to a serving along with half of the risoto.
