To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices of prosciutto
- 4 ounces of crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup of seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for frying
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Then, butterfly each chicken breast by slicing it horizontally through the middle, but not all the way through. Open up the chicken breast and place a slice of prosciutto and a spoonful of feta cheese inside. Close the chicken breast and secure it with toothpicks.
Next, prepare three shallow dishes for the breading process. In the first dish, add the flour. In the second dish, add the beaten eggs. In the third dish, add the seasoned breadcrumbs. Dip each chicken breast in the flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumbs, making sure to coat each one evenly.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Transfer the chicken breasts to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Once the chicken is done, remove the toothpicks and serve hot. The Mediterranean Stuffed Chicken Cordon Bleu is a perfect combination of salty, creamy, and crispy flavors that will leave your taste buds wanting more. This dish is perfect for a dinner party or a family meal, and is sure to impress everyone who tries it.
