Granny's Apple Prosciutto Chicken
4 Boned skinless chicken breast (split)
8 slices Busseto Prosciutto
1/2 cup Finely Chopped Granny Smith Apple
1/8 t Nutmeg
1/8 t Cinnamon
1/4 cup Finely Chopped onion
1 T Butter
1 T Flour
2/3 c Milk
3/4 c Shredded Provolone Cheese

Rinse chicken, pat dry. Place each breast half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Pound from the center to the edges with the flat side of a meat mallet till 1/4 inch thick. Remove plastic wrap. Place two prosciutto slices atop each breast half.

Apple Mixture: Combine apples with spices. Place a fourth of the apple mixture on each breast. Fold in sides and roll up each half starting from a narrow end. Secure with wooden toothpicks.

Place in a glass baking dish. Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes until tender and no longer pink. Remove picks. In a small saucepan cook onion in margarine until tender. Stir in flour and dash pepper. Add milk. Cook and stir till thickened and bubbly; cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir in cheese till melted. Serve sauce over chicken rolls. Serve with rice or on a bed of rice, if desired.
