Serves: 2
Ingredients
4 thin-sliced chicken breasts
4 tbsp pesto, divided
4 tbsp shredded asiago cheese, divided
7-8 slices of prosciutto, divided
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Place a chicken breast slice in between plastic wrap.
Using a rolling pin or meat mallet, pound the chicken all over until it is about ¼” thick.
Spread a tablespoon of pesto all over the surface of the chicken.
Sprinkle about a tablespoon of shredded asiago onto the left corner of the chicken slice.
Roll the chicken into a cigar shape.
Wrap the chicken roll-up with 1 or 2 slices of prosciutto. My pack of prosciutto came with 7 slices, so I used 2 slices each for the first 3 roll-ups and a single slice for the last one.
Place on a rack on top of a foil-lined baking sheet. If you don’t have a rack, just put them on top of a foil-lined baking sheet.
Bake for approximately 20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
