Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 Boneless Chicken Breasts
- 4 Slices Prosciutto (thinly sliced)
- 15 ml (1 tablespoon) Vegetable Oil
- 10 g (1 tablespoon) Butter
- 100 g (3 oz) Black Kalamata Olives
- 30 g (1 oz) Capers
- 60 ml (2 oz) Lemon Juice.
Mise En Place
- Pre-Heat the oven at 175 °C (350 °F).
- Roll each chicken breasts in 2 slices of prosciutto. Make a tight wrap.
- Place 1 wrap on a lightly oiled sheet of aluminium. Fold the aluminium over the chicken and roll tight. You should have an even roll.
- Twist the ends of the aluminium until it is firmly agains the chicken, on both ends. This will even out the shape of the chicken inside.
- Repeat with the other chicken breast.
- Bake in the oven until the internal temperature of the chicken, measured with a meat thermometer, is 65 °C (150 °F).
- If you are not going to use the chicken immediately, put the rolls in the refrigerator for later use.
Preparation
- Heat up the oil and butter in a pan.
- Unwrap the chicken from the aluminium foil.
- When the butter is hot and foamy, put the chicken in the pan.
- Cook until the prosciutto is a bit crisp on all sides. If you had refrigerated the chicken, make sure it is heated up throughout.
- Remove the chicken from the pan.
- Add the olives and capers to the pan.
- Deglaze the pan with the lemon juice.
- Reduce the juice by half.
Finition
- Slice the chicken rolls at an angle.
- Serve with the olive and capers and drizzle the reduced lemon juice over the lot.
- Enjoy!
