4 boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves (about 5 ounces each)
4 ounces Fontina cheese, thinly sliced
6 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
16 large fresh sage leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA WITH SAGE



Chicken Saltimbocca with Sage image

An Italian favorite that can be found at many trattoria's, saltimbocca is pretty easy to make at home, too. We opted for chicken breasts over the more traditional veal, but still kept them wrapped up in a tasty blanket of fresh sage leaves and thin slices of prosciutto. Round out this simple weeknight meal with a side of steamed squash or a Tomato Salad with Lemon and Mint.

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA MEATLOAF



Chicken Saltimbocca Meatloaf image

Oh my god! is my first reaction. I love chicken saltimbocca but it's something you need to make and eat immediately. I decided to make it an entire day in advance and this was simply amazing. My husband does not like the word meatloaf! However, every time I make him one he loves it, including this recipe. I used all of the ingredients as my chicken saltimbocca but used ground chicken. Enjoy this delicious paleo dish today (or tomorrow). You can make just 1 loaf or up to 4 mini loaves! You pick.

Provided by Cindy Anschutz Barbieri

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 1h31m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided, or to taste
6 cups baby spinach
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
5 slices prosciutto, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1 pound ground chicken
½ cup almond meal
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons arrowroot powder

Steps:

  • Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and spinach; toss until almost wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until just combined, about 30 seconds. Transfer cooked spinach to a bowl.
  • Cook prosciutto in the same skillet over medium heat, breaking apart with tongs, until brown but not crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from skillet and place in a small bowl.
  • Melt butter in the skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir mushrooms until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove and place mushrooms in a bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Flatten each portion to 1/2-inch thickness by pressing down with the palm of your hand. Top with cooked spinach and prosciutto. Roll each portion into a loaf, sealing the spinach and prosciutto inside.
  • Grease the skillet with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add meat loaves.
  • Place skillet in the preheated oven and bake until meat loaves are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a saute pan. Lightly flour chicken pressed with prosciutto. Place in heated oil, Prosciutto side down. Brown one side, turn and brown the other side. Drain off excess oil, and deglaze with 4 ounces of white wine. Add artichokes, fresh lemon juice, cream and butter and cook until sauce is thickened. On a large platter, place chicken breasts topped with reduced sauce and garnish with capers. Serves 4.

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA PANINI



Chicken Saltimbocca Panini image

This panini is so flavorful and a great way to use left over chicken. If you don't have a panini press, don't worry you can either weight it down with a cast iron pan or a brick covered in aluminum foil. Heat through until cheese becomes melty and bread crisps outside! DELISH!!!! Hope you like it as much as we...

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA WITH ARTICHOKE SAUCE



CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA WITH ARTICHOKE SAUCE image

Categories     Sauce     Chicken     Sauté     Low Carb     Dinner

Yield 4-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 1/2 pounds) See Note
12 large fresh sage or basil leaves
2 to 3 oz thinly sliced prosciutto di Parma
1/3 c unbleached all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 T extra virgin olive oil
1/3 c dry Marsala or sherry
One 14-oz can artichoke hearts
1 c Homemade Chicken Stock
T unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Place a chicken breast half in a plastic bag and close, leaving 1/2 inch open. Pound the bag with a rolling pin or meat pounder until the breast is about ¼ inch thick; remove and set aside. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Put 3 sage leaves on the less smooth side of each pounded chicken breast. Cover them with the prosciutto and press until they adhere. Cover the breasts and chill them for 10 minutes. Cut each breast crosswise in half. Spread out the four in a pie plate lined with wax paper or parchment. Season half the chicken pieces with salt and pepper to taste. Working with one piece at a time, coat the chicken with the flour, lifting the wax paper on both sides to move the piece around; shake off the excess flour. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over high heat until hot; reduce the heat to medium. Sauté the chicken for 2 minutes per side, or until the pieces are golden and just cooked through; remove them to a plate and cover them loosely with aluminum foil. Repeat with the remaining oil and chicken. Add the Marsala to the skillet; bring it to a boil, scraping up the brown bits at the bottom of the pan, and simmer for about 1 minute, or until the pan is almost dry. Drain and coarsely chop the artichoke hearts (about 1 1/3 cups). Add them to the skillet along with the chicken stock and simmer until reduced by half. Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer just until reheated. Add the butter to the pan and swirl until it has melted. Divide the chicken among 4 dinner plates; spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for free-range chicken breasts, thick-cut prosciutto, and fresh sage leaves.
  • To ensure that the chicken breasts are cooked evenly, flatten them to an even thickness before cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken breasts. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken breasts are cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken saltimbocca immediately after cooking, garnished with fresh sage leaves and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Conclusion:

Chicken saltimbocca is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its combination of tender chicken, savory prosciutto, and aromatic sage, it's a dish that is sure to impress your guests. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, chicken saltimbocca is a great choice.
