How To Make stuffed chicken breast

  • Step 1

  • Step 2
    Holding a breast in your hand, opened like a taco shell, stuff each breast with one slice of prosciutto and 1/8 cup Fontina cheese. Secure breasts closed with toothpicks. Set aside and keep warm.
  • Step 3
    In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté garlic and onion in clarified butter until tender. Deglaze pan with wine. Add mushrooms, butter, salt, and pepper and sauté 1-2 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender. Stir in basil and lemon juice. Top stuffed chicken with prepared sauce.
  • Step 4
    NOTE: To make clarified butter, melt butter over low heat; remove from heat and let sit until the milk solids settle to the bottom; skim the clear butter from the top; discard sediment.
