dale!'s Note:

This is an easy dish that is quick to prepare ahead and looks really impressive. A great meal to serve to guests too, just increase the quantities as you need to. Goes well with roast garlic potatoes and grilled zucchini and red peppers.

The first time I made this (forgot to review) I followed the recipe exactly and it was fantastic. The second time I had huge boneless chicken breasts so I cut a pocket in them and spread some dijon then I added some brie cheese and wrapped in the prosciutto. Excellent recipe with lots of variation possibilities. A wonderful recipe.

Dale this is so simple but so good the prosciutto keeps the breast nice and moist. I will do it again, but I thoght maybe next time for a change I would use pesto instead of the mustard, don't no if it would work but it would have that italian feel. I served mine with a baby spinach salad.

Simple and excellent! Baked at 400 F for those of us with American ovens.
