EASY CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Salt and pepper both side of the chicken cutlets.
• Sprinkle one side of each cutlet with 1/2 teaspoon of the minced sage and then place a slice of prosciutto on top of the sage. Press the prosciutto into the chicken. Place a sage leaf on top of each piece of prosciutto and then secure it into the piece of chicken with a toothpick.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add in the cutlets, prosciutto side down, and cook for about 3. Flip and then cook on the other side until chicken is cooked through, about 3-5 additional minutes. Once done, transfer chicken to a plate and cover with foil.
• Pour out about half of the oil so that only 1 teaspoon of oil/ liquid remains in the skillet. Add in the shallot and cook for 2 minutes until softened. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 additional minute.
• Whisk in the wine and broth, making sure to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet (this is where much of the flavor comes from!). Bring to a simmer and cook for about 4 minutes until the sauce is thickened and reduced a bit.
• Turn heat down to low and whisk in the butter, parsley, and lemon juice until fully combined.
• Return the chicken to the skillet, prosciutto up, as well as any juices that collected on the plate. Simmer for about a minute so that the chicken can heat through again.
• Remove from heat and serve the chicken with the sauce divided evenly among the 4 cutlets.

Steps:

• Place the chicken cutlets flat on the work surface. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Lay 1 slice of prosciutto atop each chicken cutlet.
• Squeeze the frozen spinach to remove the excess water. Season the spinach with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, toss the spinach with 1 tablespoon of oil to coat.
• Arrange an even, thin layer of spinach atop the prosciutto slices. Sprinkle the Parmesan evenly over each. Beginning at the short tapered end, roll up each chicken cutlet as for a jellyroll. Secure with a toothpick.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy large skillet over high heat. Add the chicken and cook just until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Add the chicken broth and lemon juice, and scrape the browned bits off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover and simmer until the chicken is just cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a platter. Simmer the cooking liquid over high heat until it is reduced to about 2/3 cup, about 5 minutes. Season the cooking liquid with salt and pepper, to taste. Remove toothpicks from the chicken. Drizzle the reduced cooking liquid over the chicken and serve immediately.

THE BEST CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Spread the flour on a plate and dredge each breast, coating evenly and shaking off the excess. Set aside.
• In a large fry pan or sauté pan over medium-high heat, melt 1 Tbs. of the butter with the olive oil until very hot. Add the chicken breasts and cook until the undersides are golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the chicken breasts over and continue to cook until they feel firm when pressed in the centers, 4 to 6 minutes more.
• Reduce the heat to very low. Sprinkle the breasts evenly with the chopped or dried sage. Top each breast with a piece of prosciutto, then divide the cheese slices evenly among the breasts. Cover the pan tightly and cook until the cheese is melted, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and tent with aluminum foil, being careful not to allow the foil to touch the cheese.
• Increase the heat to high. When the pan is sizzling, add the wine and deglaze the pan, stirring to scrape up any browned bits stuck on the pan bottom. Boil until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the remaining 1 Tbs. butter.
• Spoon an equal amount of the sauce over each breast, then garnish with a sage leaf. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
