Lemon Chicken Saltimbocca
Jennifer and Dave
We love Chicken Saltimbocca, but really wanted to find a healthy version. This recipe is from SimpleHealthyKitchen.com; it is literally one of our all-time favorites. It is a lovely weeknight or date night dinner for two. It is also a crowd-pleaser at dinner parties with family and friends
oz very thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into 8 thin strips
4
tsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/3
cup reduced sodium chicken broth
1/4
cup fresh lemon juice (juice of approx.1 large lemon)
1/2
tsp cornstarch
4
lemon wedges (optional)
Directions
1.
Sprinkle salt on each chicken cutlet evenly. Place 3 sage leaves on top of each cutlet. Wrap each cutlet with 2 prosciutto strips to keep sage leaves in place.
