Chicken Escalopes With Lemon and Serrano Ham image

Chicken escalopes are flattened chicken breast fillets - they cook quicker than normal breast portions and absorb flavors more readily. Can be assembled in advance. Can substitute boneless chicken thighs for breasts and bacon or prosciutto for serrano ham. If using chicken thighs, spread apart, no need to flatten with rolling pin.
