Chicken Recipe Lightened Up Chicken Saltimbocca Recipe

Description

Chicken saltimbocca is a restaurant-quality dinner made with pounded chicken breasts stuffed with prosciutto and sage in white wine sauce. I’ve lightened it up without sacrificing any of the flavor!

Yield: 6servings | Serving Size: 1piece chicken

Ingredients

3boneless skinless chicken breasts, 8 oz each

3slices prosciutto, cut in half, 1.5 oz each

6sage leaves

1/4cupall purpose flour, or gluten-free flour mix*

olive oil cooking spray

kosher salt, and fresh pepper to taste

1/4cupwhite wine,

3/4cupreduced sodium chicken broth

1tbspbutter, or dairy-free butter

Instructions

Slice each breast lengthwise into two cutlets to make a total of 6 cutlets.

Cover with wax paper and pound each one to about 1/4″ thick. Season chicken lightly with salt and pepper.

Lay a 1/2 slice of prosciutto on one end, top with sage leaf and fold over.

Lightly pound ends of chicken to seal.

  • Place flour in a shallow bowl and lightly dredge chicken in flour, shaking off excess. Discard the remaining flour.

Heat a nonstick skiller over medium-high heat. When hot, spray with olive oil.

Sauté chicken 1 minute on each side. You will have to do this in a few batches.

Remove chicken from the pan and deglaze the pan with wine, scraping up any brown bits.

  • Add chicken broth and butter and return chicken to the sauce.
  • Finish cooking on low about 5 minutes.

Serve this over a bed of wilted greens or pasta (see serving suggestions above) and top with sauce.
