Chicken Spinach and Prosciutto Bundles
Ingredients:
6 small organic chicken breasts
1/2 cup baby spinach leaves, stems removed
12 slices prosciutto ham
1 cup chicken broth or stock
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1 tbsp lemon juice, fresh
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried basil *or fresh
1/2 tsp dried parsley *or fresh
1/2 tsp dried rosemary *or fresh
1 tsp red wine vinegar
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat 2 tbsp of the olive oil in a large saute pan and cook garlic and mushrooms until soft and golden. Set aside. I’m not sure about you, but I could eat a bowl of these all by themselves.
Heat the remaining two tbsp olive oil in your saute pan. Assemble the chicken bundles by first seasoning each chicken breast with sea salt and pepper and then lay a few pieces of spinach on top of each piece. Wrap each chicken breast with 2 slices of prosciutto.
Place into the hot oil and sear on each side.
Place chicken bundles into a 7×11 baking dish. Pour mushrooms and garlic back into the saute pan and add chicken broth, vinegar, lemon juice and herbs. Simmer about a minute and pour mixture over chicken breasts. Drizzle chicken bundles generously with olive oil and bake for about 30 minutes.
Absolutely delish.

Thank you Kathy!
I made this last night and my husband and kids loved it.
I’m so happy that you enjoyed the recipe! 🙂
Amazing! All of my favorites blended together. Perfect!
I would like to make this in advance. Is the sear a must, or can I make the bundles in advance put in the fridge & pour the mushroom mixture on right before I put it in the oven?
It would be fine to do it that way, too. Should still have a lot of flavor and turn out delicious. 🙂
