Steps

  1. 1
    Butterfly the breasts and beat them to an even 1 cm thickness.
  2. 2
    Lay two sage leaves on each, cover with a slice of prosciutto and press it on firmly. Secure with a cocktail stick if it will not stay.
  3. 3
    Dust only the chicken side with flour — flouring the prosciutto stops it crisping.
  4. 4
    Fry prosciutto-side down first in the oil and half the butter for 3 minutes until it turns crisp and bronze.
  5. 5
    Flip and cook 3-4 minutes more, then remove to a warm plate.
  6. 6
    Deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping, and reduce by half. Add the stock and reduce again.
  7. 7
    Take off the heat, whisk in the remaining cold butter and the lemon juice to make a glossy sauce, and pour it over the chicken.
