Prosciutto Mozzarella Chicken Rolls
These Prosciutto Mozzarella Chicken Rolls are tender chicken breasts filled with salty prosciutto and melty mozzarella, then rolled and baked until golden and delicious. An easy Italian-inspired dinner that looks impressive but is simple enough for a weeknight meal.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast
- 4 cups my easy marinara sauce
- 4 slices prosciutto
- 2 cups freshly grated mozzarella
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan
- 1/2 cup chopped Italian parsley
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 375-degrees
- Start by washing the chicken and pat dry. Then pound the chicken breast until thin salt and pepper to taste
- Lay one slice of prosciutto on each breast, divide half the mozzarella among the four breast, top with Italian parsley
- Roll the chicken breast jelly roll style. Secure with toothpicks
- line an oven proof casserole dish with half of the marinara sauce. Lay the rolled chicken breast on top. Then top the chicken with the remaining marinara sauce and the shredded mozzarella, half of the grated parmesan and bake for 25-30 minutes. Top with the remaining parmesan and additional Italian parsley.
Notes
Secure each chicken roll with toothpicks before baking to keep the filling tucked inside. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing so the mozzarella stays inside rather than running out onto the plate.
