Flatten chicken: Butterfly the chicken breasts. Place a breast between two plastic films and pound with a meat mallet until it is thin. Repeat with the rest.
Make rolls: Season each breast with a ¼ teaspoon of salt and a pinch of pepper. Place two slices of pancetta on the breast, followed by a slice of cheese, then ⅓ cup of spinach.Fold the breast and secure it with a toothpick. Repeat with the rest.
Breading: Mix the onion powder with the breadcrumbs. Cover the breasts with the egg, followed by the breadcrumbs.Place the breasts on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and spray with the oil.
Roasting: Cook in the oven --preheated to 400 ºF [200 ºC]-- for 20 minutes, or until the rolls turn a golden color and are cooked through. In the meantime, make the sauce.
For the mushroom sauce
Sautéing: Heat butter over very low heat. Add the onions and cook covered until they turn translucent.
Simmering: Add the mushroom and simmer covered until they are cooked through (about 5 minutes). Sprinkle the flour and mix well. Add the wine and cook stirring until the sauce thickens.Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serving: Serve the chicken rolls with sauce on the side. Some side dishes that go great with this dish are oven fried potatoes, steamed veggies, or mashed potatoes.
