There's a local goat cheese company, Haystack. They make a wonderful variety of fresh chevre. The Chief Mess Cleaner Upper and I picked up some of their apple wood smoked chevre at the farmer's market last week and I had some prosciutto around... the perfect combination to disguise a few chicken breasts. Chevre is the most wonderful, tangy, creamy goat cheese.
Apple wood Smoked Chevre and Prosciutto Stuffed Chicken
1/2 small log of apple wood smoked (or any other) chevre
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
pinch of salt
4 slices prosciutto
2 boneless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/4 inch thickness
Combine first 4 ingredients, set aside. Preheat oven to 350. Lay out each chicken breast and add 2 slices of prosciutto and half of the chevre mixture. Roll up and toothpick each chicken breast. Sear in a pan with a little bit of olive oil. After the first turn, place pan in oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, de-toothpick and slice chicken. Serve with a green salad.
