I've made this several times and really enjoy it. I usually do not add the cheese and don't feel it is missing anything without it, it's just a bit healthier. The simple mixture of prosciutto, chicken and roasted red pepper is fantastic. I use fresh thyme from my garden and home made roasted red peppers. Thanks for posting, I'll keep making this one.
