As Omelet has already mentioned, a salad goes nicely. Or perhaps some
veggies. I have a sudden craving for asparagus - I reckon that would go
nicely...

I've never tried leaving the skin on, but once the prosciutto is wrapped
around the breast, it stays together really well so it should still be
okay.

Good luck
