Ingredients

 2 tbsp fresh sage
 8 oz chicken breast(cut in half lengthwise)
 4 oz prosciutto
 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil(divided)
 3 tbsp lemon juice
 ¼ cup water
 2 cups cauliflower rice

Directions

1

Place two sage leaves on top of each chicken breast. Wrap each breast with two slices of prosciutto. Repeat until the sage, prosciutto, and chicken are used up.

2

Heat half of the oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts for three to five minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Work in batches if needed. Remove and set aside.

3

Deglaze the pan with lemon juice and water, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Cook for an additional minute to reduce the liquid slightly. Set the liquid aside with the chicken to keep warm.

4

Add the remaining oil to the same pan. Once warm, add the cauliflower rice to the same pan and cook for three to five minutes or until cooked to desired doneness.

5

Divide the cauliflower rice evenly between plates. Top each plate with chicken and top with any additional liquid from the pan. Enjoy!

Chicken Saltimbocca
I am a Nurse, wife, and mom. I have spent over 20 years in Healthcare and always took care of everyone else. Finally, after years of yo-yo dieting and failed New Years' resolutions, and complete desperation, I found something that Finally worked for me. I have been doing this Keto/Low carb lifestyle for over 3 years and have lost over 100lbs. My goal was to bring this lifestyle to my family and we went from couch potatoes to our 1st 5k and have lost over 300 lbs. We still have a long way to reach our goals, but we strive to be better every day. I enjoy helping women bring this Keto/Low carb lifestyle to the family.
