Take a chicken breast and slice open like a book. Then pound out till all even and flat. Season with salt and pepper to taste, sprinkle 1/4-1/3 c. of cheese and place a sage leaf on top of cheese. Roll up and secure with toothpicks. Finish the rest of chicken. Roll each piece in the butter and then in the mixture of bread crumbs and walnuts. Place chicken in a heated skillet with a couple tablespoons of oil to brown on both sides. Then place in an oven safe dish and transfer to a heated oven at 350 degrees. Cook till chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes(it might take longer depending on your oven).
