Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
8 slices of prosciutto
8 fresh sage leaves
1 cup of white wine
2 tablespoons of olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon of butter
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place a slice of prosciutto and a sage leaf on each chicken breast.
Secure the prosciutto and sage with toothpicks.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Cook the chicken for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Add white wine to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the oven and stir in butter to the sauce.
Serve the chicken with the sauce drizzled on top.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth instead of white wine.
Serve with a side of pasta or vegetables for a complete meal.
Make sure to remove the toothpicks before serving.
