Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Measuring Cups And Spoons
  • Grill pan
  • Pastry bash
  • Skillet
  • Paper Towel
  • Fork

Ingredients
  

  • Two piece chicken breast skinless & boneless
  • Three tablespoons of all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup butter 1 stick
  • 1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 1 ½ cups chicken stock
  • 1 ½ tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
  • 8 ounces shredded provel cheese
  • ¾ cup sliced button mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoon prosciutto

Instructions
 

  • In a small mixing bowl, combine ½ cups of butter (1 stick) with all-purpose flour using a fork to form a creamy paste. Then, set aside.
  • Rinse the boneless, skinless chicken breast pieces under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.
  • Place breadcrumbs on a plate, and ½ of the melted butter is used to brush all sides of the chicken lightly.
  • Cover the chicken in the breadcrumbs, then use a pastry brush to spread the remaining melted butter over the crumbs to keep them moist.
  • Place a grill pan over medium heat and set the broiler to low. Grill the chicken for about 5 minutes on each side until it's fully cooked. Then, remove the chicken from heat and set them aside.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 F.
  • In a big skillet that can be used in the oven, heat the chicken broth in the medium-high until it starts boiling.
  • After it starts boiling, stir in the butter-flour mixture. Keep stirring and bring the pot back to a boil until the sauce thickens, but it should be pourable.
  • Mix the lemon juice and wine in the sauce using a whisk, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer.
  • Add the mushrooms and prosciutto to the sauce and let them simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Put the chicken breasts in the pan with the sauce.
  • Put cheese on top of each chicken breast piece. Then, put the skillet in the oven and bake the chicken until its cheese melts. It takes about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken on serving plates. Pour the sauce with mushrooms and prosciutto over the chicken. Enjoy with a vegetable topping.
