A recipe from Ricardo.
Ingredients:
1 cup garden cress, fresh, finely chopped
150 g garlic and herbs cream cheese
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 slices prosciutto, very thin
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. In a bowl, with a fork, mix cress and cheese. Add salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Put the chicken breasts on a cutting board and do an incision on the side in a way to form pockets. Distribute the mixture of cheese inside the chicken breasts. Roll each chicken breast with a slice of prosciutto in a way to close the incision and fix with a toothpick.
3. In a large oven-proof skillet, heat oil and butter at medium-high heat. Cook chicken breasts 3 to 5 minutes on each side then keep cooking in oven at 350 F 15 to 20 minutes or until not pink inside.
