Season the chicken, with pepper and salt on both sides. Sprinkle thyme and grated Parmesan cheese on top. Lay slices of prosciutto over one side of the chicken.

Add olive oil in a preheated pan. Place in chicken prosciutto side down. Fry over medium heat for a few minutes, until the top side of the chicken, is no longer pinkish. Flip over and brown lightly on the other side – about 4 to 5 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts. Do not overcook the chicken. Turn off heat.

Add in olive oil in a separate preheated pan. Add in asparagus, garlic, salt and pepper. Saute for 10 minutes or until tender. Turn off heat.

Cut chicken into serving pieces. Place asparagus on a platter and place the chicken on top.
