Cremini-Stuffed Chicken Breasts with Porcini Pan Sauce

Dried porcini mushrooms have a heady, intensely savory aroma. With such a concentrated earthy, meaty quality, porcinis deliver a huge flavor dividend. In this recipe, they combine with fresh cremini mushrooms to make a satisfying stuffing for chicken breasts, and their soaking liquid is the base for a light-bodied but full-flavored sauce.
