Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Split or butterfly the chicken breasts.
On each chicken piece, layer the prosciutto, 1 T. pesto, and 1 T. sun dried tomatoes. Roll up the chicken breasts while tucking in the sides to completely envelop the filling.
Add olive oil to a deep skillet; brown the rolled up chicken on both sides; add the wine, tomato sauce and the basil. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer 30 minutes.
Serve with your favorite pasta, rice or polenta.
