Wrap each heap of shredded mozzarella cheese with a slice of prosciutto, shaping them into small, tight rolls.

Make a small incision along the side of each chicken breast, cutting about three-quarters of the way through to create a pocket.

Stuff 2-3 prosciutto-wrapped cheese rolls into each chicken pocket and close with toothpicks.

In a large skillet, melt the olive oil and butter over medium heat.

Season chicken breasts with black pepper, then brown them on each side for about 4-5 minutes.

Deglaze the skillet with white wine, covering immediately.

Turn heat to low and let it cook for 15 minutes, or until the chicken internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Remove the toothpicks, spread a spoonful of pesto on each chicken breast, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Serving suggestion: Before serving, spoon pan juices over the chicken for additional flavor.
