Description

A delightful blend of chicken, prosciutto, and fresh Caprese ingredients, perfect for cozy dinners and gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 slices of prosciutto
  • 8 ounces of fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about half an inch; season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from heat.
  3. Assemble by laying two slices of prosciutto on a surface, place a chicken breast in the center, top with mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil. Wrap the prosciutto around the chicken and place seam-side down in a baking dish.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and prosciutto is crispy. Serve warm with olive oil or balsamic glaze.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored for 2-3 days in the refrigerator. For best taste, serve hot right out of the oven.
