PESTO CHICKEN
A simple way to prepare chicken that looks like you spent a lot of time preparing. It can also be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until baked. Be sure to use a good quality pesto for best results. I like to serve it with pasta, but it is also nice sliced and served on a green salad.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Lay a chicken breast out flat, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Spread pesto sauce over the chicken breast, and roll the chicken breast in a slice of bacon, securing the roll with toothpicks. Lay the rolled chicken breast into a 9x9-inch baking dish. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts. Pour the vegetable oil over the chicken breasts.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the bacon is crisp, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a roll should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Mix spinach, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, pesto, and garlic together in a bowl until well combined.
- Place chicken breasts on a flat work surface. Slice horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Pound chicken using a meat tenderizer until it is about 1/2-inch thick.
- Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons filling into breasts and form into little bundles. Sprinkle each with vegetable seasoning. Wrap 2 pieces prosciutto around each chicken breast. Place in a shallow baking dish and cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the centers, about 20 minutes more. Remove from the oven.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Return chicken to the oven and broil for an additional 5 minutes.
