Ingredients
  • 4 chicken breast fillets.
  • 200 gr (7 oz) Italian sausage stuffing.
  • 12 Parma ham (prosciutto) slices.
  • A bunch of fresh thyme.
  • ⅓ cup of extra virgin olive oil.
  • Salt and ground pepper.
Instructions
  1. Place a large piece of cling film on the kitchen bench. Add one chicken fillet and cover it with another piece of cling film. Use something heavy and flat (like the bottom of a saucepan) and hit the fillet hard several times so it flattens. Set aside and repeat with the rest of the fillets.
  2. In a bowl, add the sausage stuffing, the thyme and season well with salt and pepper. Knead the meat so all the ingredients mix well.
  3. Preheat the oven at 180 degrees Celsius (360 F).
  4. Use a piece of greaseproof paper on the bench. Lay down 3 slices of Parma ham very close to each other. Place one chicken fillet on top. Add some of the stuffing close to the top and start rolling the fillets together with the ham slices. Repeat with the rest of fillets.
  5. Place the stuffed fillets in a tray, season with salt and pepper and pour in the olive oil. Cook at 180 degrees Celsius (360 F) for ~ 30 minutes.
  6. Serve the stuffed fillets with sautéed kale and roasted potatoes.
  7. Bon appetit!
