Prosciutto Wrapped Chicken Breasts

Rinse the chicken breasts well. Mix together flour, salt and pepper and dredge the chicken breasts. Then wrap 1 or 2 prosciutto slices around each chicken piece and press it firmly.

Add olive oil to a sauce pan (I like using cast iron!) and heat it up so that it sizzles when you hit it with a drop of water. Add the prosciutto-wrapped chicken pieces and let them get a good sear going, turning them only when they are crusty on the bottom. Then turn them over and keep them cooking till juices are running clear.

Remove the chicken from the pan, add the white wine and give it a good whisk, collecting the drippings . Simmer and reduce it till it starts to look less runny. Then add the butter and combine well. Finally, pour the sauce over the the chicken.

I serve this with a light salad and some nice risotto.

I also change it up a bit by adding to the sauce any of the following: mushrooms, capers, or garlic, anything! It’s yummy!
