Ingredients

Directions

Place each piece of chicken between 2 sheets of waxed paper and pound them thin with a mallet, the flat of a large knife, or a rolling pin. Trim the rind from the cheese and cut it into 2 thick sticks.

Wrap each stick with a slice of prosciutto and place in the center of each flattened chicken breast. Roll the chicken breast around the prosciutto and cheese to make a sausage shape and secure with toothpicks or butcher's twine. Season the rolls with salt and pepper.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a heavy skillet. Quickly brown the chicken rolls over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to low, and scatter the mushrooms into the pan, sprinkle with wine and rosemary. Cook, turning the chicken rolls frequently, 10 to 15 minutes.

When the first bit of cheese begins to seep out, the chicken is done. Remove it from the pan to a cutting board at once. Cut each of the rolls at an angle into 6 slices. Cover to keep warm. Reheat the pan juices, swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

To serve arrange the chicken and mushrooms on a bed of arugula leaves tossed with olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper. Warm the pan juices and strain them over the chicken.

    This recipe was amazing!!! I actually tried to butterfly the chicken and being my first time it was a challenge. A little comical if i may say, but everything came together and it was so tasty. I didn't have any issues cooking it in a pan. When you butterfly the chicken it makes it thin so when you cook it on both sides the chicken cooks through with no problems!! The sauce with the wine, butter, rosemary, and mushrooms definitely added a nice touch! yum yum!! loved it!

    I have made this recipe 3 times already but I have a couple of questions: The recipe says that once you see cheese oozing out it is done, but I am never confident that it is cooked through. Yet, if I leave it too long it gets tough and you loose a lot of cheese. Has anyone else had this problem?
