Method
Step 1 of 5
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Step 2 of 5
Crumble feta in a bowl. Add mint and season with salt and pepper. Stir until combined. Using a small sharp knife, cut a pocket into the thick side of each chicken fillet. Fill with feta mixture. Wrap a slice of prosciutto around each chicken breast and secure with kitchen string.
Step 3 of 5
Traditionally, in Greek-style cooking, this dish would be made using vine leaves instead of prosciutto.
Step 4 of 5
Vine leaves are not readily available, try it with silverbeet instead! Pour boiling water over silverbeet leaves and leave for 2 minutes to soften. Refresh in cold water and trim away thick centre stem. Prepare chicken as per main recipe and wrap a leaf around each piece, securing with kitchen string. Cook as per main recipe.
Step 5 of 5
Place onto prepared tray and spray with olive oil. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is golden and cooked through. Serve whole or sliced.
