*Inspired by a recipe from Saving Dinner's menu mailer from a few years ago.*
The original recipe is a bit different from my adaptation. The original recipe is not searchable online through the Saving Dinner website, though I did find on some recipe sites the exact word for word recipe that was in the menu mailer. So, I am not sure which came first, by my inspiration is from Saving Dinner.
2 packages Perdu Thinly sliced chicken breasts (usually 4-5 thin slices per package)
1 Tbsp Melted Butter
1/2 Cup Hot Sauce
10 or so slices of Provolone cheese (depending on how many breast slices you end up with)
Combine the melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl. Dump the sauce into a gallon size food storage bag. Add all the sliced breasts. Refrigerate for half an hour.
Remove the chicken from the bag one at a time. In a baking dish, place the chicken flat, and top with one to two slices of provolone (depending on the size of the breast). Roll from the narrow end to the wide end and secure with a tooth pick. Place the seam side down. Repeat with the remaining breasts and cheese.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake at 400F for 35 minutes. The cheese will most likely ooze out, but that was fine with us! After the 35 minutes, remove the foil and cook for about 5 minutes more.
We served this with celery sticks and a big tossed salad with bleu cheese dressing for dipping. It was really good. I will admit to being nervous because the sauce smelled so hot, but once cooked and mixed with the provolone and bleu cheese, it was delicious!
