Chicken Prosciutto Recipe

I entered this recipe in the Zuuzs Grand Spring Recipe Challenge.  I hope you all will enjoy this recipe and go vote for it here.
This is an original recipe that I came up with and it was a huge hit with my family (even the pickiest ones!).  I hope you enjoy it as much as they did!





6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
12 slices prosciutto
3 French's Fried Onions, crushed
3 Tblsp crushed garlic & cheese croutons
5 Tblsp shredded Parmesan chees
1/2 tsp dried sage
1/2 tsp dried mint
1/2 tsp garlic salt, plus more for seasoning
1/4 tsp ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
5 Tblsp butter or margarine at room temperature, divided

1)  Add fried onions, croutons, Parmesan, sage, mint, 1/2 tsp garlic salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper to a bowl and mix well.  Add 2 Tblsp softened, but not melted, butter or margarine and mix with hands until well incorporated.




2)  Slice chicken breasts through the middle, forming a pocket.  Spread softened butter or margarine on inside of chicken breasts and sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper.  Stuff well with the onion mixture.  Wrap chicken breasts carefully with two pieces of prosciutto each.
3)  Place on baking sheet and place in oven preheated to 375 degrees.  Bake for 30 minutes, baste with 2 Tblsp melted butter or margarine and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
4)  Remove from oven and let stand for 5 to 10  minutes to redistribute juices.



Again, I hope you will all go vote for my recipe here.
