    1 hrs 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breast halves without skin or bones
  • 2 cups of Italian-style salad dressing
  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon of baking powder
  • 1 and a half cups of milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 cups of bread crumbs seasoned with Italian flavors
  • 2 tablespoons of butter, separated, or as necessary
  • 10 pieces of prosciutto, cut into chunks
  • 4 cups of marinara sauce
  • canola oil as required
  • 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, shredded, or more according to preference
  • 4 Italian sub rolls
  • 8 slices of provolone cheese
  • 1 cup of Parmesan cheese, grated

Step 1

Begin by slicing each chicken breast down the middle to create 4 thinner pieces. Place them between plastic wrap and gently pound to about 1/2 inch thickness using a meat mallet.

Step 2

Next, marinate the chicken breasts in zesty Italian dressing in the fridge overnight to infuse them with flavor.

Step 3

An hour before cooking, take the chicken out of the refrigerator to allow it to come to room temperature for even cooking.

Step 4

Prepare your coating stations by combining flour and baking powder in one bowl, milk and egg in another, and breadcrumbs in a third bowl. Have them ready for breading the chicken.

Step 5

In a pan over medium heat, melt a tablespoon of butter and cook the prosciutto until it crisps up, creating a flavorful topping for the chicken. Set the prosciutto aside on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 6

Meanwhile, gently simmer your marinara sauce in a saucepan to warm it up before assembling the dish.

Step 7

In a deep-fryer or large saucepan, heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for baking later.

Step 8

Flatten the chicken cutlets and stuff each with a quarter of mozzarella and prosciutto. Fold the cutlets over the filling and secure with toothpicks.

Step 9

Coat the stuffed chicken in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and finally in breadcrumbs for a crispy coating.

Step 10

Fry the breaded chicken until golden brown, cooked through, and floating in the oil for about 6 to 7 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 11

Prepare the sub rolls by slicing them open and spreading butter on the insides. Build the sandwiches with a layering of chicken cutlet, marinara sauce, provolone cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Place the tops on and arrange the subs in a baking pan.

Step 12

Toast the assembled subs in the preheated oven until the bread is crunchy and the cheeses are gooey, for about 2 minutes. Serve the hot and melty sandwiches immediately for a delicious meal.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. To keep your cheese fresh and melty, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  2. 2. For the best flavor, try to use your cheese within a week of purchase.
  3. 3. When storing your chicken, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap before placing it in the refrigerator.
