Whoever gave the rolled up chicken thigh recipe (maybe VI?), thank you!

I took boneless, skinless thighs and laid prosciutto over them. Then added a little feta and sun-dried tomato and rolled them up. Added a little Dizzy Dust and put them on raised direct at 350. 

Near the end I grilled some romaine to make a salad...the dressing I used is from a great restaurant in St. Armand's Circle in Sarasota, Columbia Restaurant. It's Spanish olive oil, garlic, oregano, white wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

    @hartofatiger, like I said, someone posted a recipe of those on here...not that exact combo but you can use just about anything you want. I just happened to have those things in the fridge and they sounded good to me. It worked out alright.

    Do you pound the chicken thin so it rolls? The Publix by my house has been stocking chicken breast sliced really thin. Perhaps those would work. Once cooked they are like 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.

    Yes, I did. Not a ton, though. Just enough to make it uniform thickness so it would roll up and cooked seam side down. I didn't toothpick or tie them.

    I stand corrected, It was Cen-Tex! Thanks again for the idea. They were a hit.

    They are tasty and super easy. Check out the "fun with meat glue" thread for a fun twist on bacon/procuitto wrapped meats. It's cool stuff.

    I just can't bring myself to embrace this "meat glue" concept, although I'm sure it is part of my daily life in some form or another. I just let the proteins from the chicken seal it together.

    Meat glue is a strange concept but if you have ever eaten deli meat or sausage, or almost any other precessed food, you've had it plenty. There are no giant turkeys lurking around out there with perfect football shaped breasts :) Maybe it would sound better if you called transglutiminase? Rolls right off the tongue dosent it? It is really cool to use with wrapped foods. You can't tell where the bacon/procuitto stops and the chicken starts. Just throwing it out there. ......

    I've always wondered about the deli meat...I just figured they compressed the hell out of it to get it in that shape. The meat glue makes sense.
