Pickled Pepper Chicken Saltimbocca With Wilted Kale Recipes

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA WITH ROASTED POTATOES AND CRISPY KALE

Steps:

• Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 425°F. Arrange chicken cutlets in a single layer on rimmed baking sheet and season with 1/2 tsp. pepper. Place 1 sage leaf on top of each cutlet, then wrap each in 1 slice of prosciutto, starting from the top and wrapping in a single layer, making sure cutlet stays flat.
• Finely chop remaining 4 sage leaves and toss with potatoes, garlic, 1 Tbsp. oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper on second rimmed baking sheet.
• Cook chicken in upper third of oven and potatoes in lower third until prosciutto is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of chicken registers 165°F, 12-14 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk anchovies, vinegar, honey, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1/4 tsp. pepper in a large bowl; add kale and toss to coat.
• Remove both baking sheets from oven; let chicken rest. Spread kale evenly over potatoes and return to upper third of oven. Roast until potatoes are tender and kale is browned at edges, about 5 minutes more.
• Divide chicken among 4 plates. Serve potatoes and kale alongside.

PICKLED PEPPER CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA WITH WILTED KALE

Steps:

• Combine the broth and garlic in a large pot over medium heat. Season with a generous pinch each of salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Stir in the kale in large handfuls, letting each batch wilt slightly before adding more. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the greens are just tender, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place a chicken cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap and lightly pound until very thin; transfer to a plate or baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken cutlets. Season one side of the cutlets with salt and pepper. Place 2 sage leaves, 1 slice prosciutto and 1 tablespoon chopped peppers on one half of each cutlet. Fold each cutlet over the filling. Gently press down to help the stuffed cutlets adhere and stay folded during cooking. Season the outside of the cutlets with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the stuffed cutlets and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until golden and just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes total.
• Transfer the greens to a platter with tongs or a slotted spoon. Put the chicken on top of the greens and tent the platter with foil. Ladle the broth from the large pot into the large skillet and bring the liquid to a boil. Add the remaining 1/4 cup pickled peppers and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until the sauce is slightly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and greens before serving.

THE BEST CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA

Steps:

• Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Spread the flour on a plate and dredge each breast, coating evenly and shaking off the excess. Set aside.
• In a large fry pan or sauté pan over medium-high heat, melt 1 Tbs. of the butter with the olive oil until very hot. Add the chicken breasts and cook until the undersides are golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn the chicken breasts over and continue to cook until they feel firm when pressed in the centers, 4 to 6 minutes more.
• Reduce the heat to very low. Sprinkle the breasts evenly with the chopped or dried sage. Top each breast with a piece of prosciutto, then divide the cheese slices evenly among the breasts. Cover the pan tightly and cook until the cheese is melted, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and tent with aluminum foil, being careful not to allow the foil to touch the cheese.
• Increase the heat to high. When the pan is sizzling, add the wine and deglaze the pan, stirring to scrape up any browned bits stuck on the pan bottom. Boil until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the remaining 1 Tbs. butter.
• Spoon an equal amount of the sauce over each breast, then garnish with a sage leaf. Serve immediately. Serves 4.

CHICKEN SALTIMBOCCA MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and spinach; toss until almost wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until just combined, about 30 seconds. Transfer cooked spinach to a bowl.
• Cook prosciutto in the same skillet over medium heat, breaking apart with tongs, until brown but not crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from skillet and place in a small bowl.

Roll each portion into a loaf, sealing the spinach and prosciutto inside.
• Grease the skillet with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add meat loaves.
