Abby's Chicken Rollatini is a delicious twist on classic stuffed chicken breasts. This dish is made by stuffing chicken breasts with prosciutto and whole milk mozzarella cheese, then topping them with a garlic Parmesan butter mixture. The chicken is then rolled up, secured with toothpicks, and cooked until browned and crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. This dish is elegant and flavorful, with the perfect balance of saltiness from the prosciutto and creaminess from the cheese. It is perfect for a fancy dinner party or a romantic date night, but also easy enough to make for a weeknight dinner. Serve with a side of pasta or roasted vegetables.
