Ingredients

  • 6 chicken cutlets
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 slices prosciutto
  • 6 slices mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup julienned sun-dried tomatoes
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a baking dish with non-stick spray. Prep your dredging bowls. Mix together the olive oil and lemon juice in one shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt and pepper.
  • Lay 1 chicken cutlet between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, pound the chicken until it's ¼" thick.
  • Dip the chicken in the olive oil and lemon mixture and then dip the the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Lay 1 slice prosciutto, 1 slice cheese and a few sun-dried tomatoes on top of each chicken. Roll and place each piece of chicken seam side down in the baking dish. Secure with toothpicks if needed. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Spray the top of the chicken with a little cooking spray.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

  • Use same-sized chicken cutlets so everything cooks evenly.
  • Use toothpicks to secure the rolled-up chicken breasts but make sure to remove them before serving.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is fully cooked, with an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute and makes for a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Experiment with different types of cheese and fillings to create your own unique version of this recipe.
  • You can make the dish in advance and just throw in the oven when ready for dinner.
