  • 4

    Coat a large sautee pan with non-stick cooking spray, heat on high until pan is very hot, slightly smoking

    Sautee chicken breasts for 2 minutes on each side until brown

  • 6

    Move chicken to a tin foil-covered cookie sheet, place in oven for 10 minutes

  • 7

    While chicken is baking, separate 4 slices of prosciutto and lay each on a paper towel or clean surface

notes

Try to use very little or no salt in this dish - the prosciutto is salty enough!
