Chicken Boursin En Croute Recipes

CHICKEN WITH BOURSIN WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Special equipment: Bamboo skewers
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Season chicken with pepper and garlic powder. "Weave" a bamboo skewer through the length of each chicken strip (as you would run a straight pin through fabric). Divide the cheese into even amounts for the chicken strips and spread on the surface of the chicken. Then wrap each chicken strip with a slice of the prosciutto and place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake until done.

BOURSIN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Saute onion with a Tablespoon of olive oil in skillet and cook until translucent.
• add 1-2 more tablespoons of olive oil and add chicken breasts.
• Cook chicken in skillet until juices run clear, or it is pretty well cooked through.
• After chicken is browned on both sides add the can of broth and the white wine.
• Add the pepper and garlic to the chicken and broth.
• Bring entire skillet to a boil and add the Boursin Cheese.
• Break up the cheese into smaller peices and reduce to a simmer.
• Simmer about 15 mintutes until cheese is melted and creamy.

CHICKEN W/ BOURSIN & PARMA HAM

Steps:

• Slice through the chicken breast but not quite right through and stuff each one with some Boursin. Try to reclose the chicken breast so that the cheese won't spill out.
• Lie two slices of Parma Ham next to each other and then lie the stuffed chicken breast on it and wrap it up nice and tight.
• Heat the olive oil in a heavy based pan and fry the wrapped chicken on both sides for around 2/3 minutes each side. You just want to brown the Parma Ham.
• Pop into an oven proof open dish (which can be put on the hob later) then splash the wine in to the frying pan to deglaze any juices and then tip over the chicken and pop in the oven.
• This will need cooking for around 20 minutes
• When cooked, transfer the chicken to a serving plate and keep warm.
• Put the oven proof dish on the hob (don't worry if some Boursin has spilled out!) and add the stock. Bubble away for 5 mins until reduced to half, add a tablespoon of Boursin, mix in and then pour over the chicken.
• Best served with mash and baby veg! Enjoy!

• Refrigerate seam side down in a greased baking dish covered for at least 3 hours or overnight.
• When ready to bake brush the stuffed rolled chicken with melted butter, roll in bread crumbs and bake at 350F gas mark 4. 180 degree C for 30 to 35 minutes or until chicken is completely cooked. Let rest 5 minutes before slicing into 1/2-inch thick servings.
