Chicken Prosciutto Rolls Recipes

CHICKEN INVOLTINI {STUFFED CHICKEN ROLLS}

Steps:

• Season each chicken slice with salt and pepper to taste.
• If chicken cut is too thin, lay 2 fillets overlapping one another.
• Top with a piece of prosciutto crudo (salt-cured ham), one or two slices of cheese and a few rosemary leaves.
• Roll each chicken involtino tightly and secure with a toothpick.
• Rub with extra virgin olive oil and place on a hot grill pan.
• Let cook on each side for at least 3-4 minutes to get the meat cooked on the inside. Reduced the heat and flip the meat a couple of times if needed.
• Serve hot with more pepper and extra virgin olive oil.

CHEESE AND PROSCIUTTO STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven: To 450 F degrees.
• Prepare the chicken: Flatten the chicken breasts using a meat mallet to pound them until they are about ¼ inch to ½ inch in thickness.
• Assemble the chicken breasts: Spread ½ the cream cheese on each chicken breast. Top with basil leaves, then 2 slices of prosciutto on each breast and a tbsp of chopped sun-dried tomatoes on each breast. Carefully roll up the breasts and secure with toothpicks. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cook the chicken: Heat the olive oil in an oven proof skillet and brown the chicken, placing first with seam side down until just slightly golden brown. You may need to remove toothpicks to brown on all sides. Place skillet in oven and bake chicken for an additional 20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
• Finish the dish: Remove chicken from skillet onto a cutting board, discard toothpicks and wait about 15 minutes before slicing each chicken breast. To double the recipe simply double all the ingredients.
