Cheesy Chicken Valdostana
If you love cooking chicken but want to switch things up, here's a simple cheesy recipe from the Aosta Valley.
Equipment
- 1 baking dish
- kitchen foil
- fork
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts filleted
- 4 slices Italia cotto ham
- 4 slices fontina or emmental cheese
- salt and pepper
- dry or fresh sage
- 2 tbsp Belmorso Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Instructions
- Cover your baking dish with kitchen foil, and layer the chicken breast fillets on top.
- Season with salt and pepper, and bake for 15 minutes, in a slightly pre-heated oven at 180 degrees Celsius. Preheating it for 5 minutes is all you need.
- Take the chicken breast out of the oven, drain any liquid and turn the chicken fillets on the other side.
- Top each chicken breast fillet with 2 slices cotto ham and 2 slices emmental cheese.
- Sprinkle plenty of sage and bake for another 10 minutes.
- Take it out of the oven and serve with your favourite side dish.
- For extra Italian flavour, we suggest plating the chicken fillets in a plate drizzled with Belmorso EVOO.
- And here's the final result plated.
