Chicken Breasts with Prosciutto and Sage

This can also be prepared with duck breasts, which is how it is often made in Tuscany. Either way, the dish is good with rosemary-flavored mashed potatoes and sautéed artichoke hearts. To end, crumble macaroons over melon balls.

Instructions

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate. Add onion, carrot and celery to skillet; sauté until vegetables begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Return chicken and any accumulated juices to skillet; add wine, prosciutto and sage. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover; simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Serve chicken with sauce.
