Sage & Prosciutto Chicken Saltimbocca
The Italian word "saltimbocca" means to "jump" into one's mouth. This wonderful dish fulfills the promise with prosciutto and fresh sage leaves. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

In the past I've made chicken saltimbocca but the chicken was rolled with the proscuitto and sage inside. This version was much easier to put together. But the other recipe had you deglaze the pan with broth, juice and wine and then simmer the chicken briefly. Liked how the flavor soaked into the chicken that way. Next time I'll just combine the best of both recipes.
Made the whole meal pictured (Rosemary Roasted Potatoes & Asparagus and Orange Chocolate Ricotta Pie) featured in the magazine. A really special Italian meal. Not that difficult so I made it while we were in Hilton Head Island for a week. My Mom and sister were impressed!
Wonderful recipe! Quick and easy, and always a hit. Great mix of flavors.
I used ham instead of prosciutto since that is what I had on hand. It turned out delicious. A definite do-over!
I made this last Sunday for dinner with our neighbors. Everyone raved over it and my neighbors who are "foodies" thought it was restaurant quality. Will definately make this again!
I'm usually reluctant to try something new for Sunday dinner, but something about this told me I would love it. I did indeed, and so did my whole family. We are not crazy about sage so I used tarragon instead. Delicious!
