Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- Pat chicken breasts dry with a paper towel.
- Using a sharp knife, make an incision in the side of each chicken breast about 3 inches long and 2 inches deep--make sure you do not cut through the chicken breast, it needs to serve as a pocket.
- Crack an egg into a shallow bowl and whisk it with a fork.
- In another shallow bowl combine breadcrumbs, garlic salt, oregano and black pepper.
- Working with 1 chicken breast at a time, dip first into the egg mixture to coat and then immediately in the breadcrumb mixture, and set aside.
- Repeat with each chicken breast.
- Stuff each chicken breast first with 2oz of burrata and then 2 thin slices of prosciutto.
- Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add chicken breasts to the skillet, working in 2 batches (2 breasts at a time).
- Brown chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Transfer to a foil lined baking sheet.
- Add 2 more tbsp of olive oil to the skillet and repeat with the other 2 chicken breasts.
- Transfer baking sheet to the oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Remove from oven, let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Storage: Store prosciutto stuffed chicken breasts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days.
