Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 8 leaves Fresh sage leaves
- 8 slices Gluten-free prosciutto
- 0.5 cup Gluten-free flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 0.5 cup Chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Instructions
Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to make four pieces total.
Place the chicken pieces between sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound them to about 1/4 inch thick using a meat mallet.
Season both sides of the chicken with salt and black pepper.
Lay a sage leaf on each piece of chicken, then top with a slice of gluten-free prosciutto. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
Lightly dredge each chicken piece in gluten-free flour, shaking off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken, prosciutto-side down first, and cook until the prosciutto is crispy and the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Deglaze the skillet with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Allow the wine to reduce by half, about 2 minutes.
Add the chicken stock to the pan and bring to a simmer.
Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer gently in the sauce for another 2 minutes.
Remove the chicken to a warm serving platter.
Stir the butter into the sauce to thicken it slightly, then adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve immediately.
