Provided by Bon Appétit Test Kitchen

Categories     Chicken     Mushroom     Quick & Easy     Dinner     Prosciutto     Bon Appétit

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 2 pounds)
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
8 thin slices prosciutto
8 thin slices provolone cheese
32 fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 cups mixed mushrooms (such as crimini, chanterelle, and maitake), torn or chopped into small pieces
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons mixed chopped fresh herbs (such as basil, parsley, and chives)

Steps:

  • Halve chicken breasts horizontally, keeping 1 long side attached; open halves like a book. Pound breasts until 1/4" thick. Season on all sides with salt and pepper.
  • Place 1 chicken breast on a work surface, cut side up. Overlap 2 slices prosciutto on top of chicken, leaving a 1/2" border. Top prosciutto with 2 slices provolone; layer 8 basil leaves over cheese, maintaining 1/2" border. Roll up chicken lengthwise and tie with kitchen twine. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Heat 1 tablespoon butter and oil in a large heavy ovenproof skillet. Add roulades and cook until browned on all sides, 8-10 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of roulades registers 165°F, 7-8 minutes. (The chicken will be cooked through but still juicy.) Transfer chicken to plates and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Scrape drippings and any melted cheese from skillet; discard. Set skillet over medium-high heat and melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add mushrooms. Cook, turning once, until mushrooms are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; add broth and vinegar. Simmer until liquid is thickened and reduced, 10-12 minutes. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon butter and herbs; season with salt and pepper.
  • Cut off and discard twine. Cut chicken into 1/2" slices. Drizzle mushroom sauce over.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 teaspoons sun-dried tomato oil, divided
4 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
8 tablespoons basil pesto
8 teaspoons drained and chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
toothpicks
⅓ cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
4 cloves garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Cut a pocket 3/4 of the way through the thickest side of each chicken breast. Season chicken with oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Pour 1 teaspoon sun-dried tomato oil on each breast, rubbing it and some of the seasoning inside each pocket. Fill each breast with 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons basil pesto, 2 teaspoons sun-dried tomatoes, and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese. Insert 3 to 4 toothpicks diagonally into each breast to seal.
  • Heat remaining 2 teaspoons sun-dried tomato oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add stuffed chicken breasts and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side.
  • While the chicken is cooking, mix together balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, and garlic in a small bowl. Pour into the skillet around the chicken. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the balsamic glaze has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Spoon some glaze over each breast.
  • Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook until cheese has melted and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove toothpicks and drizzle with pan juices to serve.
