PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Using a small knife, make an incision in the top rounded end of a chicken breast, cutting through the center and to the ends without breaking the sides, to form a pocket for the stuffing.
• Combine the tomatoes, ricotta, walnuts, sage and egg yolk in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Using a spoon (or place the filling into a piping bag without a tip), stuff one of the chicken breasts with half of the ricotta mixture. Seal the cut end of the chicken closed using a toothpick. Repeat with the other chicken breast.
• Lay the prosciutto into 2 sheets (3 pieces each) and roll around each stuffed breast. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Heat the canola oil in a large, ovenproof saute pan until almost smoking. Sear the chicken breasts on the seam side of the prosciutto, then flip and transfer the pan to the oven. Roast until the center of the chicken registers 160 degrees F, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the pan, add the capers and shallots and cook over medium-high heat for 1 minute to soften the shallots. Add the chicken stock and cook until reduced by half, then swirl in the butter. Add the parsley and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
• Slice the chicken and serve with the sauce over the top.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED CHICKEN WITH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400f. In a small bowl, mix 2 T with lemon juice. In another bowl, mix 1/2 t sea salt with Italian seasoning. Unwrap chicken thighs so they lay flat on a rimmed baking sheet, then cut each thigh in half. Drizzle with oil-lemon mixture and rub to evenly coat on both sides. Sprinkle with seasoning mixture on both sides. Top each piece of chicken with 1/2 slice of prosciutto, pressing to adhere and tucking any extra under the ends. Space chicken pieces on baking sheet so they aren't touching. In a large bowl, toss cauliflower with remaining 2 T olive oil (or add if needed). Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 t sea salt, toss again. Distribute cauliflower in a single layer around (not on) chicken on the baking sheet. Bake until chicken is cooked through, 25-30 minutes. (If desired, remove chicken pieces and return cauliflower to oven for another 5 to 10 minutes for darker roasting of cauliflower) Note: The cauliflower tends to shrink during roasting. A full 4 cups reduces to just over 3 cups. So, don't short yourself if you like roasted cauliflower !

• Meanwhile, whisk half of the lemon juice, the mustard, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil until smooth. Add the lettuce and tomatoes; toss to coat.
• Add the chicken broth and the remaining lemon juice to the skillet; cook over medium heat until slightly reduced, 1 to 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread 1 tablespoon of olive oil on a baking sheet, and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the shallots, and cook until they turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper; cook and stir an additional 2 minutes. Transfer the shallot mixture to a bowl. Mix in the goat cheese, dates, and basil; stir until well combined.
• With a sharp knife, cut a 1-inch long slit into the thick side of each chicken breast. Work your fingers into the slit, and expand the slit to form a pocket in the breast meat. With your fingers or a spoon, stuff each chicken breast with about 1/4 cup of the goat cheese mixture. Wipe off any cheese mixture from the outside of the chicken breast, and wrap each breast in a slice of prosciutto so that the pocket opening is covered. Place the chicken breasts, seam sides down, onto the prepared baking sheet.

Decrease the heat to low and simmer very gently until the cauliflower is tender, about 15 minutes. Pour off the liquid and reserve it. Mash the cauliflower in the pan with a potato masher. The mash should be rustic and chunky. Add enough of the reserved cooking liquid to moisten. Season to taste with salt and pepper and keep warm until serving. PREPARE THE CHICKEN: Place 2 to 3 sage leaves on top of each chicken breast. Wrap 1 slice of prosciutto around each chicken breast. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. COOK THE CHICKEN: Place a large nonstick saute pan over medium high heat, add the oil, and place the chicken breasts in the pan. Cook for 2 minutes on each side or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate. MAKE PAN SAUCE: Remove the chicken from the pan and add the butter and shallot. Cook for 30 seconds swirling the pan, then add the wine and simmer until reduced by half. Add the chicken stock and parsley and simmer until reduced by half. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. TO SERVE: Divide the cauliflower evenly among 4 serving plates. Slice the chicken breasts in half on a sharp diagonal. Lay the chicken breasts next to the mounds of cauliflower then spoon the pan sauce over each chicken breast and serve.
