Prosciutto, Fontina, Spinach, and Chicken Roll-ups by Mary Ann
1 1/2 oz prosciutto, cut into 10 pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
1 tsp garlic powder
10 small slices fontina cheese
15-20 fresh spinach leaves
10 chicken breast halves, pounded thin
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup All Whites ( liquid egg whites)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chicken stock
1. Place flour in a shallow dish. Combine bread crumbs, minced rosemary, and garlic powder, in another shallow dish. Pour egg whites into a third shallow dish.
2. Lay a thin chicken breast half on a cutting board and at the top of the breast, layer a small piece of prosciutto. Cover the proscuitto with fontina cheese and lay a 1-2 spinach leaves on top of the cheese. Very carefully, roll the chicken up, as tightly as you can and secure it with a toothpick.
3. Dip the chicken roll in the flour, then the egg white and finally the bread crumbs, rolling it around, to make sure that it is completely covered. Place the completed roll on a plate and repeat process with remaining chicken breast halves and other ingredients.
4. When all your chicken pieces are rolled, heat 1 Tbls olive oil in an electric skillet, heated to medium-high heat. Place 5 of the rolls in the oil and let brown, turning quickly, so all sides are evenly brown. When all sides, top and bottom are brown, add 1 cup of chicken stock to the pan and cover.
5. Let cook, until chicken is cooked through, adding more chicken stock, if necessary, 10-15 minutes. To check for doneness, cut one of the rolls in half to make sure the thicker part of the chicken rolls are cooked through.
6. Remove chicken rolls from the dish and serve.

I enjoy cooking but just started making more complicated things recently...with some success :) My grocery store only had Swedish Fontina cheese-is this the right kind? I don't know much about cheese so pardon my stupidty-I just want to make sure I don't screw it up too bad! Thanks for the great recipe ideas!
