Chicken Breasts with Ginger

Chicken Breasts Saltimbocca

Chicken breasts is one of the finest substitute for veal.As much as I admire veal,it is at times prohibitively expensive.Recently I wound up with several leftover slices of freshly bought prosciutto.I decided that saltimbocca alla Romania,a dish that I have enjoyed on many occasions,would be a nice use for the prosciutto.

Traditionally,of course,this is made with scaloppine of veal.I decided to use skinless,boneless chicken breasts instead,and the result was excellent.It is a simple and quick enough dish to prepare.
