  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add prosciutto in a single layer; sear until browned and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side (work in batches for 4 servings). TIP: If prosciutto starts to crisp too quickly, reduce heat to medium.

  • Turn off heat; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Reserve oil in pan (you’ll use it to cook chicken in the next step).
