Chicken Saltimbocca

Ingredients

Skin-On Chicken Breasts - 2 pieces
Chopped Sage Leaves - 8 pieces
Wheat Flour - 2 tablespoons
Olive Oil - 2 tablespoons
Dry White Wine - 4 fl oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Place the chicken breast on a cutting board. Press down with one hand and use the other hand to slice each piece horizontally into two thinner pieces.

Step 2

Wrap the chicken slices in plastic wrap and gently pound them to make them evenly thin. Unwrap, season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Attach a couple of sage leaves to the top of each piece using toothpicks (making sure the toothpicks are as parallel to the chicken surface as possible).

Step 4

Dip the bottom of the chicken in flour. Heat olive oil in a skillet and place the chicken sage-side down. Fry for one and a half to two minutes, then flip and cook for the same amount of time.

Step 5

Splash the wine into the skillet, then immediately remove the chicken. Let the wine simmer for another minute to create a sauce that can be drizzled over the chicken when serving.
