  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breast cutlets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and black pepper
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 ounces prosciutto
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 small shallots, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped thyme
  • 3/4 cup marsala wine, or dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar, or balsamic vinegar
  • 2 peaches, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn
  • fresh basil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Sprinkle flour over the chicken, tossing to coat.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add prosciutto and cook until crisp, then set aside.
  4. Add butter and chicken to the skillet, sear until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.
  5. Stir in shallots, garlic, and thyme. Lower the heat, add Marsala wine, vinegar, and 1/4 cup water, and simmer for 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Return prosciutto to the skillet. Arrange peaches and mozzarella around chicken, drizzling honey over peaches.
  7. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Switch to broil for about 1 minute until peaches are charred and cheese melts.
  8. Serve topped with peaches and pan sauce, garnished with fresh basil.

Notes

For added flavor, consider letting the chicken marinate for 30 minutes in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs before cooking.
Using ripe peaches will enhance the overall sweetness and flavor of the dish.
If you can’t find Marsala wine, a dry white wine makes a great substitute.
