Recipe Introduction
Chicken Saltimbocca is a favorite of Rupert's on the Top customers because of the unique combination of the mozzarella cheese with the prosciutto ham atop of the chicken breast.
List of Ingredients
4 - 8 oz. Boneless Chicken Breast
4 Slices Mozzarella Cheese - enough to cover chicken
4 Slices Prosciutto Ham - enough to cover mozzarella cheese
Chopped fresh rosemary and sage - enough to cover chicken
1 quart of Supreme Sauce (recipe follows)
Recipe
To prepare chicken breast, place one breast between 2 pieces of clear plastic wrap. Working from the center to the edges, pound lightly with a meat mallet till approximately ¼" thickness. Remove plastic wrap and sprinkle the rosemary and sage on one side of the chicken breast. Place a slice of cheese and a slice of ham on the top of the breast, and flour lightly on both sides. In a sauté pan, heat enough butter to line the pan, and sauté chicken saltimbocca (ham side down) for approximately 5 minutes or until light brown and turn breast over for an additional 5 minutes.
To serve: Coat plate with supreme sauce and place chicken on top of sauce. To compliment this dish, serve with wild rice.
Supreme Sauce:
1 quart chicken stock
2 bay leaves
1 pinch thyme
1 pinch ground white pepper
1 pinch granulated garlic
2 oz. chicken base
