  1. 1
    Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Trim and thinly slice button mushrooms . Trim and thinly slice scallions , separating whites from greens. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces, if necessary. Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces; place in a large pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, 15-20 minutes. Reserve ½ cup potato cooking liquid, then drain and return potatoes to pot.

    Meanwhile, pat chicken cutlets dry with paper towels . Lay two slices of prosciutto beside one another on a flat surface. Tightly roll prosciutto around chicken. Repeat with remaining prosciutto and chicken. (TIP: You may have some prosciutto left over; use the rest as you like.) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add wrapped chicken; sear until browned, 2 minutes per side (it’ll finish cooking in the next step). Turn off heat; add to one side of a lightly oiled baking sheet (for 4 servings, spread out across entire sheet).

    Toss broccoli on empty side of same sheet with a drizzle of oil and a big pinch of salt and pepper. (For 4 servings, toss broccoli on a second sheet; roast chicken on middle rack and broccoli on top rack.) Roast on top rack until chicken is cooked through and broccoli is browned and tender, 14-16 minutes. (TIP: If chicken is done before broccoli, remove from oven and continue roasting broccoli.) Set chicken aside to rest for a few minutes; slice crosswise.

Mash with 1 TBSP butter and 2 packets of sour cream (4 packets for 4 servings; you’ll use the rest in the next step) until smooth and creamy, adding splashes of reserved potato cooking liquid as needed. Stir in scallion greens. Season generously with salt and pepper. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
