The original version that inspired this recipe was incredibly rich using whipping cream for the cream sauce and delivering a whopping 16 grams of saturated fat per serving. 85% of the calories came from fat! This version has only 4 grams of saturated fat and cuts the calorie count from 269 to 121, is still delicious and rich tasting.

Chicken breast turned out juicy, made my own seasoned bread crumbs by toasting some bread and using a food processor adding some Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, turned out a bit dark but awfully tasty. I used speck, a smoked prosciutto instead of the turkey ham and the flavors matched up well. I made a sauce by deglazing the pan with a bit of white wine. Overall a nice combination and quite easy to make.
