A delightful dish combining tender chicken, fresh asparagus, and savory prosciutto, all wrapped up and baked to perfection.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the dish.
Pound each chicken breast to about 1/2 inch thickness using a meat mallet.
Place the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap to prevent mess.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Seasoning both sides ensures even flavor distribution.
Place 2 slices of prosciutto, 3 asparagus spears, and a quarter of the shredded cheese on each chicken breast.
Arrange the ingredients neatly to make rolling easier.
Roll each chicken breast tightly around the filling and secure with toothpicks.
Ensure the rolls are tightly secured to prevent the filling from spilling out.
Place the rolls in a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
Covering with foil helps retain moisture during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour or until the chicken is fully cooked.
Check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the toothpicks before serving and enjoy your delicious chicken rolls.
Serve with a side of your choice, such as a fresh salad or roasted vegetables.
