Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken

This month's "Bon Appetit" magazine has a section on the top 10 chicken recipes at various restaurants around the country. This is one of the two that I decided sounded delicious and needed to make it on the dinner menu for this week. This particular one was a winner because 1. I love prosciutto 2. the chicken is stuffed with cheese 3. the chicken is wrapped with prosciutto 4. the side dish was eggplant panzanella 5. did I mention the prosciutto?

Also an added bonus I got Japanese eggplant in the CSA last Wednesday and needed something to cook them in. As you will see in the chicken picture I kept some of the eggplant out of the panzanella- they were so delicious on their own I could not resist.

Overall this meal was really amazing. I mean there is cheese inside that chicken and that chicken is wrapped in prosciutto how can it not be one of the most wonderful things you have ever put in your mouth. Delicious. We will definitely be cooking this meal again sometime. Chris and I also felt the panzanella would make an awesome appetizer.
