LILLIAN CAHN'S STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Rinse the chicken well and pat it thoroughly dry. Place the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of waxed paper, and pound on them gently with a rolling pin or a heavy weight until they are about 1/4-inch thick throughout.
• In a small bowl, mix together the goat cheese, garlic, and a generous amount of pepper. Stuff the chicken breasts. Lay a slice of prosciutto on top of 1 piece of chicken (if the prosciutto is larger than the chicken breast, trim to fit). Place one-eighth of the goat cheese mixture on the top third of the prosciutto, and roll up the chicken breast to enclose the cheese. Set it, seam side down, on a clean counter or plate, and repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. They will stay rolled quite easily without needing anything to secure them. Place the bread crumbs in a shallow bowl or plate, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Whisk the eggs in a large shallow bowl and set them next to the bread crumbs.
• Dip each rolled chicken breast in the bread crumbs to coat it well, then in the beaten egg, then again in the breadcrumbs. Use 1 hand for dipping the chicken in the crumbs, and the other for dipping into the eggs to minimize the amount of crumbs sticking to your fingers. Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When it is hot but not smoking, brown the chicken breasts turning them, frequently, until they are golden on all sides, about 7 minutes total. (Do not overcrowd the pan. Brown the chicken breasts in 2 batches if necessary.) Remove them from the pan and arrange them in a single layer in an 8 by 14-inch enamel or ceramic baking dish. Place the dish in the center of the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
