I needed to use some leftover Prosciutto from a previous dish so this was the result. It was tasty with the Marsala mushroom sauce. I served the chicken and sauce over Angel Hair pasta but it would be good on its own without the added carbohydrates. I smoked the chicken with Pecan wood but pan frying or oven roasting would be fine as well. I used sweet Marsala wine but dry would work as well. I used reduced home made veal stock to add depth to the sauce but chicken stock could be used as a substitute.
The addition of cream to the sauce makes for a nice pairing with a good oak aged Chardonnay. I chose a 2012 Rombauer Vineyards Carneros Chardonnay. This is an elegant wine with buttery flavors and lip smacking feel from oak aging. This Napa Valley vineyard is one of the few left that still makes this type of Chardonnay. Though not cheap it is worth the price for those who like an old style Chardonnay.
