Serrano-Wrapped Chicken With Basil Sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 split boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 8 thin slices Serrano ham
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves
- 1/2 cup creme fraiche
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- Preheat the oven to 375u0b0F. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season with chicken breasts lightly with salt and pepper, then wrap 2 slices of ham around each chicken breast. Add to the pan and cook for about 4 minutes per side, until the ham is golden and crispy. Transfer the pan to the oven and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Meanwhile, combine the basil, creme fraiche, and lemon juice in a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Spoon the sauce over the chicken breasts and serve.
