FOR THE SAUCE:
Add the ham to the skillet and cook 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned. Over high heat, add the wine and boil until it is reduced to about 1/4 cup. Add the chicken broth , and reduce by a third. Lower the heat and whisk the butter into the sauce to thicken it. Season with the salt and pepper.
