Chicken Saltimbocca

"Saltimbocca means ‘jump in the mouth’ and it does just that. Classically made with veal escalopes hammered down thin, adorned with a slice of dry cured ham and a single sage leaf, they are served with marsala or vin santo sauce. I’ve swapped here veal for chicken because such a lovely way of cooking enlivens boring chicken fillets no end. And I skipped the sweet wine sauce to have the meat and ham lovely and crisp."
