Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the airline chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2

Assemble the Saltimbocca

Lay 1 slice of speck on each chicken breast, followed by a slice of fontina cheese. Top with 3 sage leaves.

3

Sear the Chicken

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts, speck side down, and sear for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.

4

Add Garlic

Flip the chicken breasts over and add minced garlic around the chicken in the pan.

5

Bake in the Oven

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).

6

Rest and Serve

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot, drizzled with any pan juices.
