Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup shredded truffle Gouda cheese
- 4 slices prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Fresh thyme, chopped (for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in each chicken breast by slicing horizontally through the thickest part, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Stuff each chicken breast with a slice of prosciutto and a generous portion of shredded truffle Gouda cheese. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
- Sear the Chicken. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Sear the chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.
- Bake the Chicken. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Prepare the Sauce. While the chicken is baking, deglaze the skillet with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
- Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
- Stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard, and continue to simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve. Remove the toothpicks from the chicken breasts and place them on serving plates.
- Spoon the creamy sauce over the chicken and garnish with chopped fresh thyme.
- Serve with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
