PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED CHICKEN BREASTS

The best three ingredient recipe I have every posted…well actually, it may be the only three ingredient recipe I have ever posted, but either way, this is the real deal.  Fancy enough for company and easy enough for a super weeknight meal!
Spread a couple tablespoons of cream cheese onto the chicken, leaving an edge around it so the chicken seals and the gooey lovely cream cheese doesn’t sneak out.

That concludes my cooking experiment for today folks!  It was a tasty one too!

A easy THREE INGREDIENT dinner!  Simple enough for weeknight meals but fancy enough for guests!

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 slices prosciutto ham sliced, not shaved
  • 1 5 ounce container herb cream cheese I used Boursin
  • salt and pepper
Instructions


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Slice each chicken breast horizontally but not all the way through.  Open like a book. Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken.
  3. Divide cream cheese evenly between the 4 chicken breasts.  About a heaping two tablespoons each.
  4. Fold chicken back together.  
  5. Top with two slices of prosciutto.  Wrap around chicken and press to seal.
  6. Heat non stick oven safe or cast iron skillet to medium high.  Add olive oil.  Heat oil until shimmering.
  7. Sear each wrapped chicken breast for about 2 minutes on each side or until brown and crispy.  If your chicken breasts are really thick, you might want to sear the sides as well.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken.  165 degrees is the perfect temp for juicy chicken!
  9. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  10. I serve this with rice and steamed veggies!

This particular 5-Ingredient Sheet Pan Salmon dinner was influenced by a chicken dish that my mom used to make a bit in our house. She’d take a bottle of Italian dressing and marinate some boneless, skinless chicken breasts in it overnight. They’d take on all that yummy tart and tangy flavor of the vinaigrette and absorb all those herbs too. Super easy and inexpensive! This 5 Ingredient Sheet Pan Salmon is the perfect dinner for busy weeknights! This complete seafood dinner cooks in just 30 minutes and the cleanup is easy too!  INGREDIENTS 4 salmon fillets 5- to 6-oz. each 1 pound red potatoes halved 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed 5 tablespoons Italian dressing divided 1 lemon halved Kosher salt and pepper to taste Tartar Sauce for serving (if desired) INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 400°.

Spicy cumin chicken thighs with green beans

Gambar
Quick to cook and difficult to fail, spicy cumin chicken thighs with green beans is inspired by a popular Chinese street food. An easy pan-fried dish full of flavour.  This is not a classic Chinese dish, but inspired by a popular street food I used to have back in my home province of Gansu, in China. It’s called Yang Rou Chuan In my recipe, I use both cumin powder and whole cumin seeds, the same for chilli too (both powder and flakes). This helps to maximize the fragrance of the spices, and to create an appealing finished look. If you are not accustom to very hot food, please feel free to reduce the amount of chilli powder and flakes (or use milder ones). However, I wouldn’t suggest reducing the cumin as it’s really the soul of this dish.
