  1. Wonderful! I only used 2 breasts but made the entire sauce recipe. This was quick and easy but wonderful flavor. We will be having this one often. Served with Recipe #404084.
     
  2. Just terrific. For once I didn't change a thing and it was perfect as written. Twas enjoyed by adults & teens alike and I suspect even wee ones would love this dish. I went with ChicagoRN's idea of doubling the sauce...absolutely the right idea.
     
  3. This was really, really good and not very difficult to make. I doubled the sauce, then added about 1/4 cup of heavy cream to it to make a lemon-cream sauce...devine! Will definitely be making this again!
     
  4. Oh boy did I love this. I've made other saltimbocca recipes (and I'm not typically a fan of saltimbocca) but this was amazing. The lemon sauce (which I doubled) makes this recipe and is great over white rice. Served this with broccoli and artichokes. Great dinner! Definite keeper.
     
  5. Wow!!!! I love the sauce. This was very easy to make and it was a big it in my family. I've made other Saltimbocca recipes before, but this is the best by far.
