Ingredients
  

  • 4 escalopes chicken
  • 4 teaspoons fig jam
  • 8 slices dried beef
  • 2 small shallots
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • 1 pinch red chili flakes
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc
  • 2 balls burrata at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil

Equipment

  • Oven-safe skillet
  • Tongs
  • Wooden spoon
  • Measuring spoons
  • Baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper and spread a teaspoon of fig jam on each piece.
  2. Wrap each chicken piece with two slices of dried beef and secure if needed.
  3. In an oven-safe skillet, arrange shallots, garlic, peach wedges, and thyme, drizzling with olive oil and seasoning.
  4. Place the wrapped chicken on top of the veggies and bake at 220°C (425°F) for 15-20 minutes.
  5. Once cooked, remove chickens and peaches; melt butter in the skillet over medium heat and add chili flakes, balsamic vinegar, and white wine.
  6. Let the sauce simmer until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
  7. Return chicken and peaches to the skillet, simmer for a minute, and then top with burrata.
  8. Garnish with fresh basil and serve with crusty bread or a side of greens.
  9. Use prosciutto as a substitute for dried beef. If peaches aren’t available, nectarines work too. For a vegetarian option, replace chicken with grilled halloumi. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat gently. For freezing, store just the chicken and sauce, without burrata and peaches. Toast thyme lightly before use for a better flavor. High-quality balsamic vinegar significantly enhances the dish.
