A simple way to prepare chicken that looks like you spent a lot of time preparing. It can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until baked. Be sure to use a good quality pesto for best results. I like to serve it with pasta, but it is also nice sliced and served on a green salad.
Ingredients
- 4 skinless , boneless chicken breast halves
- 0.5 cups prepared basil pesto , divided
- 4 thins slices prosciutto , or more if needed
Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking dish.

Spread about 2 tablespoons of pesto per chicken breast over the top of each breast, and wrap each breast in prosciutto slices to cover the entire breast. Place the wrapped chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink, the juices run clear, and the prosciutto is lightly crisped, about 25 minutes.

Onion Pan-Fried Pork Chops
I developed this recipe for onion pan-fried pork chops one day because I wanted something different from the same old pork chops (that is how my husband asked me to cook them that day). So I made this up quickly, and boy, did he love them. Now he asks for them every time. I do this with boneless and bone-in pork chops. So it doesn't matter what kind you have on hand, just cook them up and enjoy.
