Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. ground sage
  • 1 1/2 lbs. chicken cutlets
  • 23 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 68 slices cooked ham
  • 68 slices Fontina cheese
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3 Tbsp. fresh Italian flat-leaf parsley, big chop

Instructions

  1. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, pepper and sage. Set aside.
  2. Place each chicken cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, pound chicken lightly until about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Remove plastic wrap and dip cutlets in flour mixture shaking off excess.
  4. In an extra-large non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
  5. Add cutlets; cook about 2 minutes or until brown on bottom.
  6. Turn cutlets over; top each with 1 slice of ham and 1 slice of Fontina.
  7. Add the broth; cook about 2 – 3 minutes more until the cheese melts and sauce thickens.
  8. Transfer cutlets to a serving platter.
  9. Spoon pan drippings over cutlets.
  10. Garnish with parsley.
