  1. Pound chicken very thin and marinate in concentrated chicken broth. Set aside in refrigerator while preparing the filling.
  2. Brown loose sausage until well done, drain and set aside. Chop mushrooms into a small dice, and squeeze out water.
  3. Slice provolone and mozzarella very thinly. Place bread crumbs in a large shallow bowl and add romano. Blend milk and egg in large shallow bowl.
