Directions: |
Directions:Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. In small bowl, stir together manyonaise, tomatoes, basil, prosciutto, 2 cloves garlic and Parmesan cheese. Stir remaining garlic into butter.
To make each packet, lay 1 filo sheet flat; brush lightly with melted butter. Lightly sprinkle pepper on one side of each chicken piece; then spread one side of the chicken with about 1 1/2 T. mayo mixture. Lay chicken, coated side down, on one corner of filo. Lift corner of filo over chicken; roll chicken with filo over once. Fold one side over of filo over chicken and roll again. Fold opposite side of filo over chicken; then roll to use all of the filo. Place packets seam-side-down. Repeat steps to wrap remaining pieces of chicken in the remaining filo. Brush packets with remaining butter.
To bake, arrange packets at least 2 inches apart on rimmed 12 x 17 inch pan. Bake, uncovered, in a 375 degree oven until packets are golden brown on all sides, 20-25 minutes.
