Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 (5 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 3/4 ounces edam cheese, shredded
12 sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
6 slices prosciutto

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).

This recipe is a keeper! I've tried many different chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The chicken is so tender and juicy, and the sauce is to die for.
