PROSCIUTTO-STUFFED BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH PESTO
Here is an easy way to dress up your chicken for a weeknight, or for company! Use prepared pesto, or make your own! Add some flavorful prosciutto and some smoked provolone, pop in the oven, and use your time to make the sides.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray an 11x7-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Slice a pocket lengthwise, horizontal to the cutting board, in each breast, leaving the tips intact and not slicing all the way through. The larger end of the breast should be a sort of cupped shape. Gently open each pocket, pointing the cut edge up, and leaving them on the cutting board. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
- Place 1 slice provolone cheese on each chicken breast. Layer 1 slice prosciutto over cheese, lightly folding it so it does not hang over the edge of the chicken. Spoon 2 tablespoons pesto over each chicken breast and top with tomato pieces. Sprinkle seasoned bread crumbs over chicken. Arrange chicken in a single layer in the prepared baking dish, stuffing-side up.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

PESTO CHICKEN
A simple way to prepare chicken that looks like you spent a lot of time preparing. It can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until baked. Be sure to use a good quality pesto for best results. I like to serve it with pasta, but it is also nice sliced and served on a green salad.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Add the peas to a bowl and begin to mash them with the back of a fork until they are mostly broken down. Add the ricotta and use the fork to blend and mash them together. Add the Parmesan, lemon zest, chile flakes, garlic powder and onion powder and stir to combine. Set the mixture aside while you prepare the chicken.
- Place the chicken cutlets between 2 pieces of parchment paper and pound them with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are 1/4-inch thick. Remove the top layer of parchment paper and sprinkle the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Divide the pea and ricotta mixture evenly among the chicken cutlets, smoothing it out to cover the surface area.
- Working one at a time, starting with the large end of the cutlet, roll the chicken up in a continuous spiral. Place the chicken on a plate seam-side down and continue the process with the remaining chicken.
- Shingle 3 slices of prosciutto so they slightly overlap. Place one piece of chicken about a third of the way up from the bottom of the prosciutto. Similarly to wrapping a burrito, bring the base of the prosciutto up over the chicken, roll the chicken once, then fold in the ends of the prosciutto, so that the ends of the chicken are covered, and continue to roll until the chicken is completely wrapped in the prosciutto. Set aside and continue the process with the remaining chicken.
- Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat the skillet. Add the prosciutto-wrapped chicken to the skillet and sear it on all sides. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the chicken is cooked through and the prosciutto is golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

PESTO STUFFED PROSCUITTO WRAPPED CHICKEN

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put your chicken breast on a cutting board and, with your hand flat on top of it, use a sharp knife to slice into one side of the breast, starting at the thicker end and ending at the thin point. Be careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open up your chicken breast for stuffing. Spoon desired amount of pesto into the center of the butterflied chicken breast and spread it so it is evenly coated. Then, fold your chicken back over. Wrap 2-3 slices of proscuitto around each chicken breast (depending on how large your chicken breasts are, I used 3 slices on each of my breasts). You don't need to secure your wrapped chicken with toothpicks, but if you think it needs it go for it. I just pressed mine tightly to the chicken and it cooked and stayed together just fine! Drizzle a little olive oil on the bottom of an oven safe dish. Carefully place the wrapped chicken breasts on the greased dish and tuck the wrapped proscuitto neatly underneath the chicken if it fell apart at all. Lightly drizzle a little more olive oil over the tops of wrapped chicken breasts. Season lightly with pepper (there is plenty of salty-ness from the proscuitto so no salt needed). Place chicken in preheated oven and bake until chicken is cooked through and proscuitto is crisp, about 30-35 minutes.

CHICKEN WITH PROSCIUTTO
This is a great week night meal- quick, easy , AND my kids adored it. I got the original idea from a recipe in a Williams-Sonama Catalog. I think the addition of a couple of tablespoons of chopped Kalamata olives would make a nice variation.

- To roast the garlic: peel the outer layers of the garlic skin off leaving the cloves still attached. Cut the top of the bulb off. Cut the tops of cloves hiding on the side. Wrap in aluminum foil with the cut side up. Bake at 375 F (muffin pans work great to keep them upright) for 30-45 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely before you handle.
