Time 55m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 egg
water
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 slices prosciutto ham (sliced thin)
2 pieces asiago cheese, about 1 inch square and 2 inches long
nonstick cooking spray
pasta sauce, heated
asiago cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325ºF. Coat an 8 x 8 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a shallow bowl, beat egg with just enough water to thin it a little. Set aside.
  • Place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl, and stir in dried basil. Set aside.
  • Place 1 chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet until about 1/4 inch thick, being careful not to pound holes in chicken; repeat with 2nd breast.
  • Remove plastic wrap and place 1 slice of ham on each breast.
  • Place one piece of cheese on the narrow end of each breast. Roll breast up jelly-roll fashion, and secure ends with toothpicks.
  • Dip breast in egg mixture and coat all sides. Roll in bread crumbs until well coated. Repeat with 2nd breast.
  • Place in baking dish and LIGHTLY spray with cooking spray (or an oil mister). This will help coating brown.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove toothpicks and place on plates. Top with some heated pasta sauce and some shredded cheese to garnish; serve.
