For the chicken:
- chicken breasts, sliced lengthwise in half to make thinner chicken breasts
- Slices of prosciutto
- Small jar of pesto
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs and 1 cup grated Parmesan mixed together
- Olive oil for frying
.
Preheat oven to 350.
.
Coat the chicken in the pesto. Wrap a piece of prosciutto around. Dredge in the breadcrumb and Parmesan - just kind of pack it on with your hands - it will stick because of the pesto.
.
Heat some olive oil in a frying pan (cast iron is Queen!), and when hot, add the chicken (not crowding the pan - do it in batches), and fry for a couple minutes a side or until crispy. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake until cooked through - another 10 minutes or so.
.
Transfer to a platter, top with tomatoes and some shredded basil.
.
Chefs kiss! Enjoy!
