Easy Chicken Saltimbocca

Ingredients

• 1 skinless boneless chicken breast, well trimmed and pounded flat to about 1/4 inch or slightly thicker
• 1 slice prosciutto trimmed of any fat
• 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1-2 fresh sage leaves
• salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
• 3-4 ounces fresh spinach
• 1 small clove garlic minced
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

1. 1
   Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high until hot. Add oil, distribute and wait 30 seconds. While the pan is heating, sprinkle each chicken breast with 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper.
2. 2
   Place the sage leaves in the center of each chicken breast and then wrap the entire breast in prosciutto, covering the sage leaves.
3. 3
   When the pan and oil are hot (but not smoking), add chicken breasts, with the prosciutto seam down. Saute until browned and flip over, repeating on the other side, about 4 to 5 minutes per side.
4. 4
   Remove chicken from pan, and keep warm. Add minced garlic to pan, and saute 1 minute. Add spinach, tossing to wilt. Stir in lemon juice and sprinkle with a tiny pinch of salt and pepper.
5. 5
   Place spinach on a plate, topped with the chicken.
