Description
A quick and flavorful Italian dish featuring tender chicken breasts layered with prosciutto and sage, served with a light savory sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts, boneless skinless
- 8 slices Prosciutto
- 8 fresh Sage leaves
- 1 cup Chicken broth, homemade or store-bought
- 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 Pepper
- 1 Salt
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 tbsp unsalted Butter
- 1/4 cup White wine
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.
- Lay 2 slices of prosciutto and 2 sage leaves on each chicken breast.
- Dredge the chicken in flour, shaking off excess.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat.
- Add the chicken, prosciutto side down, and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook an additional 4-5 minutes.
- Remove the chicken and set aside.
- In the same skillet, pour in white wine and chicken broth, scraping up any brown bits.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer for a few minutes until cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly.

Notes
Pound the chicken thin and even for quick cooking. Pat dry before seasoning for a good crust. Add grated Parmesan for extra richness if desired.
