Chicken Saltimbocca
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 large basil leaves
- 2 slices prosciutto
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons marsala
- 100 ml chicken stock
- Sit the chicken breasts on a board and cut through them horizontally, leaving one side attached.
- Open them up like a book and lay a basil leaf on top of each, topped with a slice of prosciutto.
- Secure with a toothpick.
- Heat the oil in a large, non-stick pan and add the chicken breasts, ham side down.
- Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until golden, then turn over and cook for 2 minutes more.
- Pour over the Marsala and allow to bubble for 1 minute.
- Add the stock and simmer for 5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked.
- Lift the chicken out, cover to keep warm, then boil the pan juices to reduce a little.
- Serve with mashed potatoes and a green salad.
