Place a large oven-proof frypan over medium-high heat
Wrap each chicken piece in 1 or 2 slices of prosciutto and season with pepper
Heat 1 tbsp of the oil and cook chicken/prosciutto parcel for 1 minute on each side or until browned
Remove pan from heat and add the tomatoes, asparagus and olives to the pan
Pour in the stock and lemon juice
Bake for 13 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through
Serve with freshly grated parmesan and basil leaves
Notes
Tip for preparing asparagus - to trim asparagus quickly, simply bend the stem at the woody, thicker end, and it will break off. Discard the thick end.
Serving carb eaters? Serve with garlic bread for carb eaters or crusty bread
No ovenproof skillet? Transfer the browned chicken to a baking dish and add the tomatoes, asparagus and olives. Pour in the stock and lemon juice and bake in the oven for 13-15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Dairy-free? Skip the parmesan cheese and sprinkle over some fresh basil leaves
Leftovers? The prosciutto wrapped chicken is delicious reheated the next day for lunch. It will keep in the fridge for 2 days.
