Ingredients
•
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded thin
•
1/4 cup unsalted butter
•
10 fresh mushrooms, sliced
•
3/4 cup dry white wine
•
3/4 cup chicken stock
•
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
•
1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
•
6 slices thinly sliced prosciutto
•
6 slices fontina cheese
Directions
1
Lightly flour chicken breasts, shaking off excess flour. In a large skillet over low heat, melt butter/margarine. Add chicken and saute until lightly browned, about 2 minutes each side. Remove with slotted spatula and set aside.
2
Increase heat to medium low. Add mushrooms and saute until juices are rendered, about 4 minutes. Add wine and simmer until reduced by 1/4, about 3 to 4 minutes. Increase heat to medium high. Add stock, parsley and pepper and simmer until sauce reduced to 1 cup, about 10 minutes.

Reduce heat to low. Top each chicken breast with a slice of prosciutto and a slice of fontina cheese. Return chicken to skillet and cook just until cheese melts. Transfer chicken to individual plates and top each with some of the mushroom sauce before serving.
