Ingredients
- 4 6 oz (170g) boneless skinless chicken breasts
- all-purpose flour, for dredging
- 7 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

- 1 cup dry white wine
- 4-8 slices prosciutto
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 6 oz (170g) mozzarella, thinly sliced

- Salt and pepper the eggplant and add to the same skillet and brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Clean the skillet and set it over medium-high heat. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of the butter and add the white wine. Bring to a boil and cook until about half of the wine has evaporated.
- Pour the wine into 9x13 baking dish. Lay the chicken breasts. Top with eggplant slices and prosciutto (1 or 2 ham slices per chicken breast). Dollop about 2 tablespoons of the marinara sauce on top of each chicken breast. Drop the remaining marinara in the spaces between the chicken. Layer the mozzarella slices on top of the sauce. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Bake for about 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted. Enjoy!
