Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 teaspoons - salt
  2. 3 - chicken breast halves (about 6 ounces each)
  3. 1 tablespoons - chopped fresh sage
  4. 3 - thin slices prosciutto
  5. - Flour to coat chicken breasts
  6. 1/3 cups - (heaping cup) olive oil
  7. 1/2 cups - white wine
  8. 3 - to 4 large artichoke hearts, quartered
  9. 1/4 cups - fresh lemon juice
  10. 1/4 cups - heavy whipping cream
  11. 1 tablespoons - butter
  12. 2 tablespoons - capers for garnish

Directions:

Lightly salt chicken breasts. Sprinkle evenly with chopped sage. Place a slice of prosciutto on top of each chicken breast, cutting or folding the pieces to fit as needed. Pound chicken breasts until thickness reaches about 3/8-inch. Lightly flour the pieces.

In large sauté pan, heat oil. Place chicken breasts in hot oil, prosciutto side down, and cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Turn chicken over and cook the other side until chicken is browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and keep warm.

Drain oil from pan, then deglaze pan with wine over high heat. Add artichoke hearts and reduce heat to medium-low. Add lemon juice, then gradually add cream, whisking constantly. Add butter and cook until butter melts and sauce thickens slightly, 3 to 5 minutes.

To serve, place chicken breasts on serving dishes and top with sauce. Garnish each serving with some of the capers.
