Jamie Oliver Chicken Wrapped in Prosciutto

Jamie Oliver Chicken Wrapped in Prosciutto

Jamie Oliver’s Chicken Wrapped in Prosciutto is a pan-seared or oven-finished chicken dish where chicken breasts are wrapped in thin slices of prosciutto and cooked until golden and juicy.

The result is a savoury, slightly crispy exterior with tender, flavorful chicken inside.

    • 1 tablespoon butter (optional)
