Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F Remove the small fillet from the underside of each chicken breast and set to one side. Using a sharp knife make a vertical cut down the length of each chicken breast, but not all the way through to form a pocket.
- In a small bowl, mix together the Edam, tomatoes, thyme and season well.
- Spoon the Edam mixture into each chicken breast pocket. Fold over the flaps of the pocket and cover with the reserved chicken fillets to enclose the filling.
- Wrap 1 ½ slices of prosciutto around each breast.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan or griddle pan, lay in the chicken and sear for 2 minutes each side until golden. Transfer to the oven and cook for 12-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Slice each chicken breast in half on the diagonal and serve straight away with your choice of accompaniment(s).

BAKED CHICKEN WITH CRISPY PARMESAN AND TOMATOES
Think of this as an easy version of chicken Parmesan, tender chicken, tangy tomatoes and crispy bits of Parmesan. Here, there's no pounding, breading or frying required. The bath of garlicky tomatoes gently cooks the chicken, keeping it juicy, while the dusting of Parmesan returns some richness lost in choosing boneless and skinless breasts. Seek out chicken breasts on the larger side to give the Parmesan a chance to properly brown and crisp up without overcooking.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Slice the tomatoes in half crosswise and place in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish along with garlic, thyme and crushed red pepper flakes, if using. Season with salt and pepper.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper and nestle into baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until chicken is about halfway cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and grate Parmesan over chicken.
- Return to oven and continue to bake until chicken is cooked through, tomatoes are starting to caramelize and Parmesan is browned and crisp, about 10 to 12 minutes more.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with parsley or basil before serving, if desired, and garnish with shavings of Parmesan.

CURRIED CHICKEN PARCELS
This is so easy to make, but everybody loves it. I found it in a magazine a few months ago and have made it quite a few times since. They are nice eaten hot or cold, so ideal to take on a picnic. If I make them for a picnic I usually make them half the size. The coriander in this recipe refers to fresh coriander leaves/cilantro.

Steps:
- Heat the oil and fry the onion, butternut squash and sweet potato for about 10 minutes.
- Add the chicken and fry until browned on the outside and nearly done.
- Add the curry paste and coconut milk and simmer for another 10 minutes.
- Take the pan of the heat and stir in the corriander.
- Roll out the pastry and cut out four 17 centimetre circles.
- Divide the filling between the pastry circles.

- Fold the pastry over to form a semi-circle and seal the edges by pressing them down with a fork.
- Brush the tops of the parcels with the rest off the beaten egg and sprinkle with the poppy seeds.
- Chill in the fridge for half an hour (I never really bother with this) and then bake in a pre-heated oven (200 C, 400 F or Gas Mark 6) for about 30 to 40 minutes until golden.

Tips and Conclusion
Tips:
- For the best results, use ripe, juicy tomatoes. If your tomatoes are not very flavorful, you may want to add a bit of tomato paste or ketchup to the sauce.
- If you don't have any edam cheese, you can substitute another type of mild, melting cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar.
- If you are short on time, you can skip the step of browning the chicken breasts. Just add them to the sauce and cook until they are cooked through.
- Serve the chicken parcels with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
These edam and tomato chicken parcels are a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken is tender and juicy, the sauce is flavorful and cheesy, and the parcels are easy to make. Plus, they are a great way to use up leftover chicken.
If you are looking for a delicious and easy chicken recipe, give these edam and tomato chicken parcels a try. You won't be disappointed.
