Preparation

Step 1

Flatten chicken breasts to 1/4-in. thickness; spread 2 tablespoons cream cheese down the center of each. Top with one slice of prosciutto, 1 tablespoon of tomatoes and two basil leaves. Roll up and tuck in ends; secure with toothpicks.
Place flour and eggs in separate shallow bowls. In another shallow bowl, combine bread crumbs and Romano cheese. Dip chicken in the flour, eggs, and then coat with bread crumb mixture.
In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil in batches. Place seam side down in a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170°.
In a small saucepan, heat cream and shallot over medium heat until bubbles form around sides of pan. Stir in the Gorgonzola cheese, salt and pepper. Cook for 4-6 minutes or until cheese is melted, stirring occasionally.
Discard toothpicks. Drizzle chicken with sauce; sprinkle with minced basil. Yield: 4 servings.
