Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Take a small pairing knife and cut a 1/2-inch slit at top of the thickest part of the chicken breast. Use your knife to cut an opening in the middle of the chicken without cutting through to the side. You want to be able to slide a 1/4-inch piece of fontina into the slit.
- Cut the fontina into 1/4-inch pieces. Stuff the fontina into the pocket of the chicken breast. If needed, put a toothpick in the chicken to secure. (If you made a small enough pocket, you may not need any toothpicks.)
- Season each chicken breast on both sides with salt and pepper. Wrap each chicken breast with two slices of prosciutto. (You want the prosciutto ends to be on the bottom of the less smooth side of the chicken breast.)
- Heat a large skillet to a medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once the butter has melted and started to foam, swirl the pan to evenly distribute the butter. Add the chicken breast, smooth-side up. Sear until golden brown and prosciutto is crisp, about 3-4 minutes. The chicken should release easily when it's brown. Flip and repeat on the other side. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
- Add remaining butter to the pan. Turn the heat up to medium-high and once the butter melts, swirl the pan until the butter begins to brown. Once the butter turns a deep brown and smells nutty, remove from the heat and add white wine. (It will spit and splatter, be careful.) Use a woooden spoon to scrape up all the brown bits at the bottom of the pan. Reduce wine by half over a medium heat. Add lemon juice, stir to combine. Add the chicken breasts back to the pan, smooth/pretty side up. Place in the oven until cooked through, another 12-15 minutes until it reaches 165 degrees.
- Spoon sauce over chicken. (If some of the cheese has come out, that's ok!, just transfer it to the plate along with the chicken.) Serve with mashed potatoes, crusty bread, or rice.

Steps:
- If the chicken breasts have tenderloins, remove them. Trim, rinse, and pat the breasts dry.
- Make a pocket on the thicker side of each breast. Using a sharp boning or utility knife, cut into the breast about 1/2 inch from one end. Create a pocket, slicing to within about 1/4 inch of the other side.
- Lay a slice of prosciutto lengthwise inside each pocket. Stuff each pocket with about one-quarter of the Fontina, distributing it evenly throughout the pocket and to the ends. Press on the top of each breast to close the pocket.
- Line up three wide shallow dishes. Fill the first with the flour. In the second, whisk together the eggs and mustard. In the third, toss the breadcrumbs with the dried sage leaves, 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper.
- Season the breasts generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge one breast well in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the eggs, turning to coat evenly, and then dredge it in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make the crumbs adhere evenly. Gently shake off any excess. Set on a plate and repeat with the other breasts. Refrigerate for at least 5 minutes and up to 3 hours to let the breading set. Discard any leftover flour, egg, or crumbs.
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Heat the olive oil in a heavy 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is very hot, carefully add two of the breasts to the pan and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. If the oil seems to get too hot, reduce the heat to medium. Transfer the breasts to a baking sheet. Repeat with the other two breasts
- Bake until the chicken and filling reach 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN BREAST WITH PROSCIUTTO AND FONTINA CHEESE
I viewed the making of this chicken dish on Lidia's Italian Kitchen. It turned out as delicious as it looked and it's easy to make. It's a little time consuming, but well worth the wait. The fontina and proscuitto parma can be found in any supermarket or Italian specialty store. You will need an oven-safe 9 inch skillet.

CHICKEN BREAST VALDOSTANA WITH BRAISED LENTILS
Steps:
- Prepare the braised lentils with spinach through step 1.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Trim any excess fat, skin, and cartilage from the chicken pieces. Place a piece of prosciutto over each chicken breast, trimming and layering each so it covers the chicken breasts as neatly as possible. Using the back of a large knife, gently pound the prosciutto into the chicken so it adheres. Dredge the chicken breasts in flour to coat them lightly and tap off any excess flour.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and the olive oil in a 12- to 14-inch skillet with an ovenproof handle until the butter is foaming. Place in the skillet as many of the chicken pieces, prosciutto side down, as will fit without touching. Cook just until they begin to brown, about 2 minutes. (Overcooking will toughen the prosciutto.) Turn the chicken and cook until the second side is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Repeat, if necessary with the remaining chicken breasts, removing the browned chicken to make room. Adjust the heat as you work so the chicken doesn't burn or stick in places.
- Pour the wine into the skillet and shake gently to dislodge any brown bits that stick to the pan. Boil until reduced by half. Pour the chicken stock into the skillet and distribute the crushed tomatoes and remaining 2 tablespoons butter in between the pieces of chicken. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat so the sauce is simmering, tilting the skillet to mix the sauce. Drape the sliced Fontina over the chicken pieces to cover them completely. Dot the center of each chicken breast with a small circle of tomato sauce or a small mound of crushed tomatoes and sprinkle with the grated cheese. Place the pan in the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through, the sauce is bubbling, and the cheese is lightly browned around the edges, about 10 minutes.
- While the chicken is in the oven, finish the braised lentils.
- Very carefully remove the pan to the stovetop and let stand a minute or two before serving.
- Spoon a mound of lentils onto the center of a warm dinner plate, Top with a chicken breast and spoon some of the sauce around the lentils.
- *Ask for the prosciutto sliced slightly thicker than paper-thin. You will need six slices if each slice is roughly the same size as a chicken breast. Buy more or fewer slices as necessary.
