Lemony Chicken Saltimbocca
I wanted to use the prosciutto I still had leftover in the fridge from a previous recipe, so I found this recipe for Chicken Saltimbocca in my cookbook collection. Apparently, saltimbocca means "jump in the mouth." I don't think it jumped, but it was pretty good. :)
Lemony Chicken Saltimbocca (2013 Cookbook Challenge)
from Cooking Light: The New Way to Cook Light
Serves 4; 202 calories/serving
Ingredients:
4 (4-oz) chicken cutlets (or 8 smaller tenders)
1/8 teaspoon salt
8 fresh sage leaves
2 ounces very thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into 8 strips
1 tablespoon olive oil plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
1/3 cup fat-free chicken broth
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
Directions:
Sprinkle chicken evenly with salt. Place sage leaves on each cutlet. Wrap prosciutto slices around each cutlet, securing sage leaves in place.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to pan and swirl to coat. Add chicken. Cook 2 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan. Whisk together broth, juice, and cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth. Add cornstarch mixture and remaining 1 teaspoon oil to pan; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook a minute until slightly thickened. Spoon sauce over chicken to serve.
