Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken
Something rich and savory, yet salty and slightly smokey- PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED CHICKEN. Sign yourself up to indulge but not feel totally guilty, you deserve it. I love being able to bring different flavors together to make one piece of blended deliciousness. Sounds fancy and looks fancy probably with those herbs on the plate - but you can make it too! Cheers to fancy, delicious, and perfectly simple 🥂
ingredients:
prosciutto slices (my favorite is @traderjoes)
boneless skinless chicken breast (you can use thighs if you prefer! I like white meat!)
crumbled goat cheese (also using TJ!)
ricotta cheese - skim or whole milk!
lemon +garlic
salt and pepper
EVOO
fresh thyme sprigs
cherry tomatoes
how to:
preheat the oven to 375
butterfly cut the chicken breast keeping connected on one side - season with salt and pepper on both sides
in a bowl, mix ~3/4 cup of ricotta + 1/2 cup goat cheese + 1 close garlic + juice of one lemon + 3-4 sprigs fresh thyme
stuff a healthy spoon full of the cheese mixture into each chicken breast, fold over to enclose the mixture
wrap each chicken breast with 1-2 slices of prosciutto (depending on size!)
oil a baking dish (I use my @corningware oval dish!) and line wrapped chicken breasts on 1 level
quarter campari tomatoes (or cherry or grape!) and top the chicken along with fresh sprigs of thyme
cook for ~40 minutes until prosciutto is crisp!
ENJOY!
