Lemony Chicken Saltimbocca

I have quite the aversion to pig products (pork, ham, pancetta, etc) and my poor boyfriend usually just has to suffer through dinner without these ingredients.  But the January/February issue of Cooking Light had a recipe for Lemony Chicken Saltimbocca that looked delicious, so I decided to finally treat him to a little bit of prosciutto. (I hope he doesn’t get used to this!)

Ingredients:

  • 4  (4-ounce) chicken cutlets
  • 1/8  teaspoon  salt
  • 12  fresh sage leaves
  • Extra dried sage (if you want a bit more sage taste)
  • 2  ounces  very thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into 8 thin strips
  • 4  teaspoons  extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2/3  cup  fat-free, lower-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2  cup  fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon  cornstarch
  • 4 oz angel hair pasta
