Chicken Saltimbocca Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Take the chicken breasts and slice them horizontally to create a pocket. Place 4 sage leaves and a slice of caciocavallo cheese inside each pocket.

2. 2

   Wrap with Prosciutto

   Wrap each chicken breast with 2 slices of prosciutto to secure the filling inside.

3. 3

   Bread the Chicken

   Set up a breading station with flour, beaten egg, and breadcrumbs. Dredge each wrapped chicken breast first in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.

4. 4

   Cook the Chicken

   Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until fully cooked through.

5. 5

   Prepare the Bean and Chicory Side

   In a separate pan, heat a little olive oil and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add the chicory and cook until wilted. Then add the canned white beans and stir to combine. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Serve

   Slice the chicken saltimbocca and serve alongside the sautéed chicory and white beans.
