Chicken stuffed with mascarpone and mushrooms

      Sorry about being away for ages. I've been on holiday and doing other things. But now the cooking goalie is back and nothing going to get in his way. Not even cabbage!!!
                    
                         This time I decided to make chicken stuffed with mascarpone. I started by chopping some mushrooms and garlic and added some chopped up flat parsley.



I then melted some butter and put it in a saucepan. Then I added the mushrooms, the garlic and the parsley. Once the mushrooms were nice and soft I left them in bowl to cool down.






Then I attacked the chicken breasts with a big knife. Ha! ha! ha! I sliced them so they could open like a book and then rolled them out using a rolling pin until they were quite thin.








I dolloped some masarpone cheese into the mushroom mixture then I put the mixture into the chicken and closed it like a book. Then, to stop the cheese falling out, I wrapped the chicken in prosciotto ham. As I had some leftover mixture, I put it on top of the chicken! After that they went into the oven for 25 minutes.




This is me looking rather daft holding my tray of food! :)

 




I served them with new potatoes and carrots even though my Mum thinks we should have had broccoli! Never!!!!!!!!!
