˝ cup of Pine Nuts (Toasted)
Nutmeg (small pinch)
1 oz Butter-2 Tbl spoons
3 sprigs of Rosemary (remove leaves)

Place in a bowl with the pine nuts, butter, very small amount of nutmeg, salt and pepper. Mix together.

Place the chicken breasts on a board, skinned side down. Make a pocket in the thicker part of the breast with a small knife, slicing sideways; make sure you don't cut all the way through.

Fill each pocket with the spinach mixture. Lay out 2 slices of Prosciutto out flat, slightly overlapping. Sprinkle some of the Rosemary leaves on the Prosciutto.

Put a chicken breast on top and wrap it with the Prosciutto. Lightly oil a baking sheet. Place the chicken breasts on the sheet, cook for approx 25 minutes.

To plate, cut each chicken breast on an angle and serve with the cooking juices. Serve with roasted plum tomatoes, and steamed asparagus.
