http://www.realsimple.com/food-recipes/browse-all-recipes/chicken-zucchini-prosciutto

Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 pound (about 8 slices) prosciutto
3 small zucchini, thinly sliced into half-moons
1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
1 lemon

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 400° F. Season the chicken with ¼ teaspoon each of the salt and pepper.

  3. Transfer the chicken to the oven and roast for 8 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, in a second skillet, over medium heat, heat the remaining oil. Cook the prosciutto until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  5. Add the zucchini, garlic, and remaining salt and pepper to the skillet and cook until tender, about 3 minutes.
  6. Add the prosciutto and zucchini mixture to the skillet with the chicken, squeeze the lemon over the top, and toss. Divide among the plates.
