Prosciutto Wrapped Stuffed Chicken

Prosciutto Wrapped Stuffed Chicken
An extremely flavorful way to make chicken! We found that, with the size of chicken breasts they generally have at the store, there was no way we could eat an entire chicken, so we split one, but it's easy enough to make more for big appetites!

Instructions
  1. Butterfly the chicken breast by cutting through almost to the edge, then folding open, like a book.
  2. Lay a longish piece of cling wrap down. You will be assembling the chicken on top of it, then wrapping it using the cling wrap, so it needs to be long enough to accommodate the assembly process.
  3. Lay the prosciutto out, overlapping slightly. Adjust how you lay out the ham depending no the shape and size of the slices, and the size of the cut chicken breast. Lay the chicken on top of the prosciutto. Spread the mustard over the chicken. You can adjust the amount depending on your taste, but you will want to keep it a pretty thin layer. Place the basil leaves on the chicken, again adjusting for taste, but you should keep to only 1 layer or it will over power the other flavors. Place dollops of the goat cheese on the chicken, trying to keep just a thin layer.
  4. Using the cling wrap to help, roll the chicken up with the prosciutto covering it, then fold the top and bottom of the cling wrap over the bundle, and roll the sides up to make it as tight as possible. Refrigerate for one hour.
  5. Heat oven to 350F. Place a roasting pan in the oven when preheating. Using a thick bottomed pan, add olive oil and heat to medium heat. Remove the cling wrap from the chicken and brown on each side, about 1 - 2 minutes per side. If making several, you may need to cook in batches to avoid crowding the pan or reducing the heat to much. Place in the hot roasting pan for 12 - 15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
  6. When chicken is cooked, cover with foil and let sit at least 5 minutes.
Recipe Notes

I found that the prosciutto was a bit tough after cooking, so you may prefer to skip the browning process. In which case, rather than placing the roasting pan in the oven to heat spray it with non-stick spray, place the chicken in the pan, and bake for about 15 - 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. That's what I will do next time.

If you'd like, you could try using bacon, which is less expensive, and I feel would work well with the browning first then hot pan method.

Enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Slice the beef across the grain into thin strips. Salt and pepper the beef to taste.
  2. Melt half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the hamburger or sear the beef strips until browned on all sides. Remove from pan to a plate and set aside.
  4. Melt the remaining half of butter in the same skillet.
  5. Cooking the veggies: start with the onion, give them a couple of minutes to start turning a bit translucent, then add the garlic, give it all a stir or two, then add the mushrooms. The garlic shouldn't really take much longer than the mushrooms. Cook until it's all tender and smells amazing!
  6. Sprinkle the flour over the cooked vegetables in the skillet and stir for one minute.
  7. Turn the heat to low and whisk in the beef broth slowly.
  8. Allow the broth mixture to come to a simmer and thicken.
  9. Once the mixture has thickened, stir in the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, and sour cream.
  10. Stir in the beef and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.
  11. Serve over hot cooked egg noodles.
Recipe Notes

Steve wants more sour cream flavor, so we're going to add more sour cream, and I'm increasing the bits for the sauce - I think it needs more sauce!  I also think I was perhaps a bit anxious about getting dinner done - or maybe just hungry - so I didn't cook down the sauce enough, so we'll be working on that too.  Sorry, I'm horrible with timing stuff, and really, really good with just dumping ingredients in, but I'll try to document this one a bit better.

Hope you enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Place the potatoes in a medium-size pot and cover them with enough water to extend 2 inches above the surface of the potatoes. Salt the water and bring to boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and slice into 1/4-inch rounds.
  2. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once crisp, place on a paper towel-lined plate and crumble into small pieces. Pour off the rendered fat, reserving 1/4 cup in the pan. Turn the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook until translucent and just beginning to brown, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Whisk in the vinegar, sugar, mustard, and salt and stir until thick and bubbly. Add the sliced, cooked potatoes and toss to coat. Top with the crumbled bacon and garnish with the chives. Serve warm.
