FIERI'D CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Begin by turning the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sage leaves with stems and let simmer until the sage has crisped and the oil has infused with the sage flavoring, about 2 minutes. Remove the sage and reserve the oil in the skillet.
• If you have thick chicken breasts, butterfly them in half. Place the chicken between two pieces of plastic wrap and, using the flat side of a meat tenderizer, pound out until an even 1/2-inch-thick. Remove from the plastic and sprinkle each chicken breast with the salt and pepper on both sides. Then dredge in the flour and dust off the excess.
• Add the canola oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat with the sage infused olive oil. Working in batches, add the chicken breasts to the skillet, searing on both sides. After 2 to 3 minutes, turn the chicken breasts and brown the other side for 2 minutes. Chop the sage that was crisping with the olive oil and sprinkle on the chicken breasts. Place a single slice of prosciutto on top of each chicken breast and press it down firmly so it sticks. Then add the provolone slices on top. Place in the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• Deglaze the pan with the white wine and cook over high heat until reduced slightly. Add the chicken broth and simmer until reduced by half. Remove the pan from the heat and add the cold butter cubes. Swirl until the butter has melted completely and the sauce has a sheen to it.

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Remove the skin from the chicken fillets (insert a knife anywhere underneath it and just pull it away).
• If you're using one large chicken fillet, lay it on the board removed skin side down and slice it horizontally as evenly as possible. Keep it cut side up and score it in a diagonal pattern with a sharp knife - it will help the sage and ham stick to it better.
• Do the same if you're cooking two fillets - place them skin side down, flatten a little with your hand and score the flesh.
• Season with salt and pepper, scatter over the sage leaves, sprinkle with most of the Parmesan and place the prosciutto slices on top to cover the whole fillet.
• Cover the whole thing with a sheet of cling film and flatten evenly with a mallet until about half an inch thick.
• Turn the fillets over, still on the cling film, season this side with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan large enough to contain the fillets, peel them carefully off the cling film and place in the pan, ham side down.
• Fry for about 3 minutes until the ham crispens and the edges of the chicken start turning opaque.
• Turn over, add a knob of butter and fry for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
• Remove from the pan and serve with a drizzle of salad cream and a green salad or green vegetables.

• Dredge all of the chicken pieces in flour and shake off excess. Place the chicken pieces onto parchment paper and set aside.
• Heat a large pan to medium heat. Add in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted add in the chicken pieces prosciutto side down and sear until golden (about 2-3 minutes). Flip and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes more or until cooked through and then place the chicken onto a wire rack. Work in batches, using more olive oil and butter as required.
• Once all of the chicken pieces have been cooked, prepare the sauce by adding the white wine to the pan. Turn heat to high and scrape the pan with a wooden spoon to remove all of the brown bits. After 1 minute add in the chicken stock and cook the sauce until it thickens and reduces by half (about 3 minutes). Once reduced turn heat down to medium-low and add in the remaining butter.

• Sprinkle the chicken saltimbocca with parsley and serve right away. Enjoy!

DAMION

Steps:

• 1 Open each thigh and gently pound to 1/4" thick. 2 Season front and back of chicken thighs with salt and pepper. 3 Insert a sage leaf and then roll snugly. 4 Lay another sage leaf on top of roll and wrap 2 pieces prosciutto around each thigh encasing the leaf. Use a toothpick to secure ends. 5 Dredge all sides in flour. Set aside. 6 In large fry pan, turn pan to medium high to get hot, then reduce to medium heat. Melt 1/2 stick butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Swirl pan. 7 Add thighs, top side down. Cook about 8-10 minutes and flip to other side, cooking about another 8-10 minutes, until juices run clear and they are crispy. Then do each of the sides for a minute or so. 8 Remove from pan, cover loosely to keep warm. Drain any grease. 9 In same pan, bring temperature up to high, add garlic, sautéing for a minute or so. 10 Add Marsala wine and chicken stock to pan to the pan. Stir up bits from the bottom, bring to boil. 11 Reduce by half. When sauce begins to thicken, whisk in 2 tablespoons butter. Keep warm. 12 In a small frying pan, melt 2-3 tablespoons of butter. When the butter begins to get frothy, add reserved sage leaves and fry until crisp. 13 Drain on paper towel and sprinkle with salt. 14 Garnish chicken with fried sage leaves and drizzle juice around the chicken.

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Place the pieces of chicken next to each other on a cutting board and cover with cling wrap/film over the top. Gently pound the chicken just enough so that they are relatively even in thickness. Remove the cling wrap/film.
• Season both sides of the chicken with pepper. If you like you can also add a little salt, but bear in mind prosciutto is a little salty - I'd suggest only on first side if at all. Finely chop one of the sage leaves and press this onto the chicken on the second side.
• Top each of the pieces of chicken with a slice of prosciutto so that it covers the chicken as far as possible (you can fold over a little, if needed, where the chicken narrows). Top each piece with a large sage leaf then use a cocktail stick through the sage leaf, prosciutto and chicken to secure it all in place but lie flat (see photos).
• Warm the oil in a large skillet/frying pan or braiser over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces prosciutto side down and cook for 1 - 2 minutes to lightly crisp the prosciutto and start the sage releasing its aroma.
• Turn the chicken over, taking care not to break up the prosciutto if it sticks slightly, then cook for another 3 - 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside, covering with foil to keep them warm.
• Meanwhile, add the butter to the same skillet and once it is relatively well melted, add the flour. Cook for a minute to let it sizzle and brown slightly.
• Then, deglaze the pan with the wine followed by the stock (add the stock just around half a minute after, to let the wine boil off a little of the alcohol). Continue to simmer the sauce for about 2 - 3 minutes, stirring regularly to both scrape any browning from the bottom of the skillet and avoid it becoming lumpy. It should thicken slightly. Add a little black pepper and salt, if needed to taste. Then add the lemon juice, stir through and serve the chicken with the sauce poured over the top.

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA (CHICKEN WITH PROSCIUTTO)

Steps:

• Butterfly the chicken breasts.
• Now cut each butterflied breast in half to make four pieces of chicken.
• Add all the ingredients for the marinade into a small bowl and mix well. (this is the olive oil, fresh garlic, salt and lemon juice).
• Place the marinade in a large plastic bag along with the butterflied chicken and seal. Take the sealed bag and rub the chicken around in the marinade. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to one hour.
• Pre heat your skillet over medium heat.
• Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
• Cook your chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until it is almost completely cooked. It will have a little more cooking time under the broiler later.
• Place cooked chicken on a sheet pan and cover each piece with one slice of prosciutto that is folded in half and 3 fresh sage leaves.
• Press the sage leaves down a bit to make sure they have good contact with the prosciutto. This will ensure the leaves do not blow off the chicken under the broiler where the heat creates a small breeze.
• Place under the broiler for a minute or so until the prosciutto lightly cooks and the fresh sage begins to crisp up.
• Remove from the oven and now add 1/4 of Parmesan over top of each piece of chicken and place back under the broiler until melted and crisp (about 2 minutes.)
• Serve immediately.
