Chicken Breasts Stuffed with Prosciutto and Jarlsberg Cheese

Sometimes called chicken Cordon Bleu, these thinly pounded, stuffed breasts show how favorite, familiar dishes can have a place in a healthful diet. This recipe uses reduced-fat cheese, and egg whites in place of whole eggs. Broccoli or green peas are good accompaniments.
