Method
0 of 8 done- Heat the oven to 190°C.
- In a bowl, stir together the Parmesan, ricotta, cream cheese, basil, and mustard until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

- Open the pocket and fill it with the cheese mixture, then close it again.
- Wrap each filled breast with the ham slices, covering the outside completely.
- Warm the olive oil in an ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat. Add the wrapped chicken and cook until browned on all sides.
- Move the pan to the oven and bake for 18–25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches 74°C in the centre.
- Leave the chicken to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
