Chicken, Taleggio, and Prosciutto Melt

4 skinless chicken breast fillets
4 slices prosciutto
4 ounces taleggio or camembert chesse
extra virgin olive oil for brushing
balsamic vinegar for drizzling
salt and pepper
tomato, olive, and basil salad to serve

using a sharp knife, slice horizontally through the thicker side of the chicken breast fillets without cutting all the way through. Open up and season with salt and pepper.

Lay a slice of ham in each breast. Slice the cheese into 4 and add to ham. Fold the chicken once over to enclose the filling.

Brush each chicken breast with a little oil and cook on a hot griddle pan for 8-10 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked through and the cheese is oozing from the middle.

Serve the chicken drizzled with a little balsamic vinegar, more oil, and a tomato, olive and basil salad. Thanks to Chris Beach for the submission.
