Massage in the seasoning to distribute, cover and marinate at room temperature for one hour, or refrigerate for up to several hours.
• Heat a wide skillet over medium heat and add 3 tablespoons olive oil. When the oil looks wavy, add the sage leaves and let them crisp for about 30 seconds. Remove and drain.
• Brown the chicken breasts in the oil for about 2 minutes per side, then transfer to a baking dish large enough to fit them in one layer.

• Turn heat to medium/high.
• Lay each piece of chicken, proscuitto side down, into the oiled pan.
• Turn the heat down to medium.
• Let it be.
• Moving the chicken around will cause it to become tough.
• Cook for 3- 4 minutes or until golden brown on one side.
• Gently turn the chicken pieces over and continue to cook.
• While the chicken is browning, add the tomato sauce to the pan.
• Continue to cook the chicken in the tomato sauce for another 3- 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle the flour into the tomato sauce.
• The sauce will begin to thicken.
