2 prosciutto slices
2 teaspoons honey dijon mustard
8 fresh basil leaves

Pat chicken dry and put on a work surface. To form a long thin pocket in chicken for prosciutto roll: Place chicken breasts on cutting board and, beginning at thicker end of breast half, horizontally insert a thin sharp knife three fourths of the way through center of each.
