How To Make chicken breasts saltinbocca style

  • Step 1
    Pound out the chicken breasts thin enough to go around the ham and swiss cheese filling. I like to use a zip lock bag for this.
  • Step 2
    Place a piece of ham and a piece of cheese on each chicken breast and roll up, tucking in the ends first. Secure the rolls in several places with butchers twine.
  • Step 3
    In a shallow plate combine the flour, parmesean, salt, sage, parsley, onion and garlic powders
  • Step 4
    Coat chicken rolls in flour and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Step 5
    Heat oil and brown chicken on all sides.
  • Step 6
    Mix the cream of chicken soup and wine together.
  • Step 7
    Place chicken rolls in slow cooker(I line mine with a disposable liner for easy clean) up
  • Step 8
    Pour the soup wine mixture over rolls, close the lid and cook on low for 5 hours.
  • Step 9
    Remove chicken and keep warm. Turn slow cooker to high. Mix the water and cornstarch together and stir into the chicken cooking liquid. Cook for 10 minutes, or until thickened.
  • Step 10
    Serve over mashed po's, rice, or hot buttered noodles.
