chicken saltimbocca sandwich













good god this was good. i'm having it again tomorrow for lunch.  seriously. it's my take on chicken satlimbocca.  it has all the ingredients of this popular italian dish, but on a toasty baguette.  i did use fresh basil instead of sage, which is traditional.  i have been trimming chicken breast so they aren't so darn big, and instead of feeding the slivers of chicken to the dog, i made a sandwich.  i briefly marinated the chicken in olive oil, dried basil, and garlic.  grilled it, topped it with a few slices of prosciutto, fresh buffalo mozzarella, and fresh basil.   a slice of tomato would have been good on this as well.  i'll make that adjustment tomorrow...
