Prosciutto wrapped Chicken with Pepperberry Chèvre

This dish will soon become a family favourite. The zingy hint of pepper throughout works so well against the sweetness from the pumpkin and the walnuts
INGREDIENTS
  • 12 slices of prosciutto
  • 4 chicken breast fillets
  • 2 packs of 150g Meredith Dairy Australian Native Pepperberry Chèvre (Dill Chèvre or any Goats Cheese will work too if you can’t get Pepperberry)

  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 2 cup walnuts
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 100g baby spinach
  • Salt and pepper

For the salad
1. Deseed and peel the pumpkin and dice into 2cm cubes
