Gradually add milk, chicken broth and wine; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened and bubbly. Set sauce aside. Sauté onion in 1 tb. butter in a large skillet until tender. Add crabmeat, sliced mushrooms, cracker crumbs, parsley, salt and pepper; stir well. Add 2 tablespoon reserved sauce, stirring well. Top each chicken breast half with 1/4 cup crabmeat mixture. Fold long sides of chicken over crabmeat mixture; fold ends over, and secure with wooden picks. Place chicken rolls, seam side down, in a 13 x9 x 2" baking dish. Top with remaining sauce. Cover and bake at 350F for one hour, or until chicken is done. Uncover and sprinkle chicken with shredded Swiss cheese and paprika. Bake an additional 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Remove wooden picks and serve chicken immediately.
