Instructions
1. Slice each chicken breast fillet in two, horizontally, through centre. One at a time, place each half on a board, cover with plastic wrap and pat out using a rolling pin to 3/4cm thick. Dust with a little seasoned flour.
2. Heat half of oil in a frying pan on medium and brown chicken, in batches, for 2 minutes each side, until cooked. Remove and set aside.
3. Heat remaining oil in frying pan on low. Cook garlic for 1 minute, until fragrant and soft, without colouring. Add tomato and olives, season to taste and simmer on medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Pour into a shallow baking dish and top with chicken pieces.
4. Preheat a grill on high. Top each chicken piece with a slice of mozzarella and prosciutto. Place under grill for 3 minutes, until cheese melts. Serve with basil and salad.
