  • time 16mins

Method

  1. 1. Season the chicken fillets with salt and black pepper and wrap each fillet in 2 slices of prosciutto.
  2. 2. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over a medium heat. Cook chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side or until the chicken has cooked through and the prosciutto becomes crispy.
  3. 3. Toss the gnocchi into the pan and coat in any remaining oil in the pan to coat the flavours from the prosciutto. Add the marinara sauce and water to the pan, bring to a steady simmer, cook for another 2 minutes or until the gnocchi is tender. Dot the mozzarella across the chicken and gnocchi, place a lid on and simmer for another 2 minutes until melted and oozing. Season to taste.

Gnocchi are small pillow-like dumplings made from potato, semolina, or flour, usually served with a sauce. I love cooking with gnocchi but this baked dish with three cheeses really takes it up a notch.

Chicken Kwasukwasu

November 29

On a visit to the Irish ambassador’s residence in Malawi I picked up this recipe from chef Blessings Tanbulagi. A simple but rather delicious way with chicken. Mango atchar is a spicy pickled condiment used in South African cuisine which has heavy influences from the large Indian population. It offers a spicy, sweet and sour flavor to a chicken dish like this- if you can’t find jars of it, try making your own with this recipe. Serve this with mashed sweet potatoes and steamed greens.
