Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices Prosciutto
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 2 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Pound each chicken breast to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch, using a meat mallet to ensure even cooking.
In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, garlic powder, black pepper, and spinach. Mix until well incorporated.
Lay out one slice of prosciutto on a clean surface, then place another slice slightly overlapping it. Place one of the chicken breasts at the end of the prosciutto slices.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the spinach and cheese mixture onto the center of the chicken breast and spread it slightly.
Roll the chicken breast tightly around the filling, starting from one end and finishing with the seam side down. Wrap the prosciutto slices around the rolled chicken to fully enclose it.
Repeat the process for the remaining chicken breasts, filling, and prosciutto slices.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, sear each chicken bundle for 2-3 minutes on each side until the prosciutto is golden and crispy.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven (or transfer the chicken bundles to the prepared baking dish if your skillet is not oven-safe). Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken bundles from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm. These pair wonderfully with a side of roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
