Ingredients:
4 skinny breasts (chicken, that is) ~ 4 slices of GOOD prosciutto (don't be cheap, buy the Italian stuff, not the domestic ham) ~ flour, salt and pepper for dredging ~ 2 tbsp butter ~ 2/3 cup of white wine OR chicken stock ~ 4 tbsp of FRESHLY grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese ~ 2 tbsp of fresh sage leaves, chopped ~ 4 sage leaves for garnish
Directions:
Dredge your chicken breasts in flour mixture and shake off excess. Now saute them in olive oil in a heavy skillet about 2 minutes each side. Turn oven to 375 degrees. Place chicken on a baking sheet. Sprinkle 1 tbsp of parmesan or Romano cheese on top of each breast, then top with a folded slice of prosciutto di Parma. Bake in oven for 5 minutes until cheese is bubbly. While chicken is baking, make your pan sauce: To the skillet, add 2 tbsp butter w/ chopped sage, scraping up brown bits from the chicken, then add your stock or wine. Boil until sauce is thick and has reduced, about 4 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken and garnish w/ sage leaves.
