Herb-Stuffed Chicken With Tomato Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 tbsp finely chopped fresh basil
    1 tbsp finely chopped fresh oregano
    2 tsp fresh lemon thyme
    2 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 tbsp finely grated lemon zest
    4 None chicken breast fillets
    4 slices prosciutto
    250 g cherry tomatoes
    250 g baby plum tomatoes
    150 g baby spinach leaves
    20 g fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
    2 tbsp red wine vinegar
    2 tsp olive oil
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 180\u00b0C/160\u00b0C fan/gas 4. Combine finely chopped basil, oregano, thyme, garlic and zest in a small bowl. Using a meat mallet, gently pound chicken, one fillet at a time, between pieces of cling film until about 5mm thick. Divide herb mixture among chicken pieces; roll to enclose filling, wrapping each roll with a prosciutto slice to secure.
    Cook chicken in heated lightly oiled large frying pan for 10 mins, or until browned all over. Place chicken on a baking tray. Bake for 15 mins, or until cooked through.
    Meanwhile, in the same frying pan, stir tomatoes over high heat for 3 mins. Gently toss tomatoes, spinach and chopped basil in large bowl with combined vinegar and oil. Serve salad with chicken.
