- Place each chicken breast between two 12-inch squares of parchment paper; using mallet, pound chicken to 1/4- to 1/3-inch thickness. Remove chicken from parchment paper and cut each breast in half lengthwise.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper; top each with 3 zucchini blossoms. Wrap each chicken breast with 2 prosciutto slices, using toothpick to secure prosciutto and blossoms.
