Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 Tbsp grainy mustard
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 12 thin stalks asparagus (bottom 1 or 2-inches cut off)
- 8 slices Havarti cheese (sliced 1/4 inch thick)
- 4 slices prosciutto
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 375 F. and lightly grease a cast-iron skillet or any oven-safe baking dish. Prepare glaze by stirring together the maple syrup and grainy mustard. Set aside.
- Lay chicken breasts upright on a cutting board and using a sharp knife, slice through the side lengthwise, cutting almost but not all the way through to the other side. Open up the split breast and flatten a bit with your palm. Spoon 1/2 tsp. of the prepared glaze mixture on to the opened chicken breast and spread with spoon to cover. Season with a bit of salt and freshly ground pepper. Place 3 asparagus stalks on the right side of the opened breast. Top with 2 slices of Havarti cheese. Fold the left side of the breast over-top. Wrap stuffed breast with a slice of prosciutto, tucking the ends underneath. Place in greased skillet or baking pan. Repeat with the rest of the chicken breasts.
- Place in preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes. Remove from oven. Generously brush chicken with glaze and return to oven for a further 10 minutes, or until chicken tests done (165F) with a thermometer.
