The ingredients in this quick-cooking soup are based on the Italian dish saltimbocca, which combines chicken with Prosciutto ham.
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped shallot
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth, plus 1 cup water
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1/2" cubes
4 ounces ham, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried sage leaves
1 lemon
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add shallot; cook 1 minute, until softened. Add broth, water, chicken, ham and sage. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cook 5 minutes, until chicken is almost cooked through. Add 1 teaspoon lemon zest, 2 teaspoons lemon juice, pepper and salt. Cook 2 to 3 minutes more.
