Butterfly chicken by slicing it in half widthwise, making sure not to go all the way though. Open it up, like a book, and pound it thin. Season with salt and pepper on both sides, then lay it out flat. Baste with enough jelly to cover the open side.

Lay out 2 slices of prosciutto, slightly overlapping. Place brie along the short side and roll up in prosciutto. Place in the middle of the butterflied chicken and top with basil leaves. Roll the chicken up and place seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with remaining prosciutto, brie, basil and chicken.

Let rest for a few minutes and then slice the chicken on the diagonal. Arrange on a plate and drizzle with additional melted jelly, to serve (making sure not to use any jelly that may have come in contact with the raw chicken). Garnish with a scattering of basil leaves, if you like.
