Chicken Rollatini
- 1 slice country white bread
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 ounces provolone cheese, cut into 8 sticks (1/2 inch by 1 inch)
- 8 chicken cutlets (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 8 slices pancetta (about 2 ounces)
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 15 -ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 head escarole or chicory, trimmed and roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the bread in half, then cut each half crosswise into 4 strips; toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the sage and season with salt and pepper.
- Put 1 strip of bread and 1 provolone stick across the center of each chicken cutlet.
- Tightly roll up the chicken around the bread and cheese, then wrap each roll with a piece of pancetta and secure with a toothpick.
- Heat a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add 2 tablespoons olive oil.
- Add the chicken; cook, turning, until browned, 4 minutes.
- Add 3/4 cup chicken broth.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven; cook until the chicken is golden and cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the garlic and cook until slightly golden, about 30 seconds.
- Add the beans and cook, stirring, until warmed through, about 2 minutes.
- Add the escarole, the remaining 1/4 cup chicken broth, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the escarole is tender, 7 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet using a slotted spoon.
- Cook the pan juices in the skillet over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and swirl in the butter.
- Serve the chicken with the pan sauce and escarole mixture.
