Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken Breast

Good Morning,

As much as I like pretty plated food, that looks like a work of art, not to be eaten, most of the time

I like simple recipes, that come together in less than an hour, but from the looks of the meal we can tell our friends

it took hours.

This is one of those recipes, it comes together in 30 minutes, is quick and easy for family weekday dinners and

just fancy enough for special occasions.

This recipe was inspired by the classic chicken Cordon Bleu  recipe. in that recipe the chicken is stuffed

with ham and swiss cheese, breaded and either fried or baked .

In this recipe I reversed the order, by topping the chicken with the stuffing, and cooking it on the stove top.

Another method you can use, cook it on the stove top up to the point of returning the chicken to the pan

and finishing cooking it in a 375 degree oven the last 15 minutes. if you use the stove top and oven method

It frees up the watch time and you get to join your guest and enjoy the meal you cooked and listen to the raves!!!! Enjoy my friends!!!!

Cooking at home restaurant style!!!!!!!!

I hope you try this and the part I like  best…..Let me know how you liked it!!!! Enjoy restaurant style cooking at home.
