Chicken Saltimbocca Burgers
Chicken Saltimbocca Burgers. Layered with Gorgonzola butter, spinach, and crispy prosciutto. Filled with sage and more prosciutto on ciabatta rolls. And of course you can’t do burgers without crispy crunchy fries ;))) happy Tuesday burger night guys !!
Chicken Saltimbocca is good…but chicken saltimbocca burgers? Better. These burgers are super delicious because they’re super unique. The burger is filled with sage and prosciutto. But it gets even better because it’s serve between ciabatta bread that’s smothered in gorgonzola butter and served with more crispy prosciutto and sautéed spinach.
Instead of taco Tuesday it’s burger Tuesday and honestly it’s just as good if not better. Plus the fries…because like I said you can’t do burgers without fries. And veggies on the side too because you know me and my veggies. Burgers, fries, veggies. Heavenly combo.
Anyway, today was kinda rough…but I will say this dinner and some wine made it so much better. Because there is no better way to cure the mid week scaries than good food and good drinks. So cheers to that !!
