Chicken & Prosciutto Tray Bake
Chicken & Prosciutto Tray Bake
Who doesn’t love a dish that uses minimal dishes and feeds the whole family? If you don’t, you might be a little mad. Dishes like this are such winners for me because the last thing I feel like doing after cooking dinner is cleaning a pigsty of a kitchen filled with dishes. It also means I don’t have to make my 4-year-old a completely different dish for dinner. The flavours in this dish are mild and child friendly, so absolutely give it a go!Prep time: 20 minutes Cook time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 70 g ciabatta or any day old bread
- 2 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt & cracked black pepper
- 200 g cherry tomatoes
- 2 bunches asparagus woody ends discarded, chopped
- 1 zucchini large, roughly chopped
- 4 chicken breasts small
- 12 basil leaves plus extra to serve
- 4 slices prosciutto
- 1/3 cup olives pitted, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1 lemon juice & zest
- 1 ball buffalo mozzarella torn into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Tear the bread into small pieces and place in a small bowl. Drizzle with a few teaspoons of the olive oil and season well. Set aside.
- Place the tomatoes, asparagus and zucchini in a baking dish. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, season well and toss to coat. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Meanwhile, top each chicken breast with three basil leaves and wrap a prosciutto slice around each one to hold the basil in place. Season with pepper.
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Cook the chicken parcels for 2 minutes each side or until browned. Sit the chicken pieces on top of the tomato mixture. Add the olives. Pour in the stock and lemon juice, then arrange the bread over the top.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Top with the fresh mozzarella, lemon zest and extra basil leaves.
