These yummy chicken rollettes are seasoned with garlic, packed with prosciutto, creamy provolone and fresh basil, grilled to perfection, and served with pasta, red sauce, and a garlicky Caesar salad. Hello, summer!
It’s warming up, people! Which means – outdoor/grilling/swimming season!! (Actually, in AZ, it’s that season all year round – but for the rest of you, YAY!!). You might know me in real life (Hi Mum!), and if you do – you know I love being outside with a glass of wine in hand.
It’s pretty easy, and I think it looks fancy enough to serve company.

Ummm… hello YUM! These were fabulous. It is cooling down here in Australia, but we love a BBQ and I definitely prepped these… and then sent the guys outside to cook them in the cold 😉

Your recipe looks delicious!
Kylee says
I have the same policy! I really enjoyed the Black Box wine, now I have to try some other varieties!
Tracy | Baking Mischief says
The convenience of that wine for cooking (and drinking) is a great argument for keeping a box in your fridge! And that is some good looking chicken. Prosciutto and provolone are always a winner when paired with chicken!
Lucy says
These look so elegant and perfect for spring. My husband loves provolone, and really enjoyed this!
Kylee says
Thanks, Lucy – I bet he’ll really enjoy this 🙂

We almost always have a box of Black Box Chardonnay in our fridge Kylee! It really is a decent wine for every day (and we have a glass of wine every day). I’m in McAllen, TX. near the Gulf of Mexico, and our grilling season is year-round also… Your rollettes look like they’d be perfect any time in McAllen!
Kylee says
I totally have a glass anytime I can. Lol. It’s just so easy to grab from the fridge!
