Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken – with Mushroom Marsala, yum! The salty flavor of the prosciutto is the perfect balance to the slightly sweet flavor of the Marsala sauce. If you are not into prosciutto you can certainly substitute ham, turkey bacon or eliminate it all together, it’s your dinner ~ you get to choose!

The magic is really in the sauce. To keep this dish fully sanctioned for the game, we sliced the chicken breast in half sideways and used a very thin slice of prosciutto to wrap the chicken breast before searing. The addition of the Marsala wine with the mushrooms and shallots make the perfect compliment to the chicken. It’s an elegant dish perfect for a dinner party, add a side dish of asparagus and a nice crisp white wine ~ you have a winner!
