Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

2. Assemble the Chicken Saltimbocca

Place 2 slices of prosciutto and 3 sage leaves on each chicken breast. Press them down gently to adhere.

3. Dredge the Chicken

Lightly dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess.

4. Cook the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts, prosciutto side down, and cook for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and keep warm.

5. Make the Sauce

In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Pour in white wine, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced by half.

6. Finish the Sauce

Stir in heavy cream and truffle oil, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Serve

Plate the chicken and spoon the garlic truffle cream sauce over the top. Garnish with additional sage leaves if desired.
