Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounce boneless, skinless chicken breast (sliced thin)
  • 4 ounce swiss cheese (sliced)
  • 100 gram green beans (blanched)
  • 4 ounce prosciutto
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Method
 

  1. Gather ingredients and preheat oven to 400°F. If your chicken needs to be flattened out, pound it thinner with a mallet. Divide green beans into bundles equal to number of servings.
  2. Lay a piece of Swiss cheese and a bundle of green beans on top of each chicken slice. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  3. Roll the chicken up then secure by wrapping with prosciutto, ensuring it’s snug.
  4. Place the chicken seam side down in the baking dish.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes, ensuring chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), then serve immediately.

Notes

– Don’t overcrowd the baking dish; ensure there’s enough space between each piece of prosciutto chicken for even cooking and browning.
– To ensure the chicken is perfectly cooked and safe to eat, always check its internal temperature. Poultry should reach 165°F (74°C) at its thickest part.
– For a make-ahead option, assemble the prosciutto chicken, cover it, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if cooking from cold.
