3 lazy steps
- 1
Pound veal cutlets thin, top each with a sage leaf and a slice of prosciutto, and secure with a toothpick.
- 2
Dredge the bottom of the veal in flour and sear in butter over medium-high heat until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
- 3
Pour white wine into the pan, scraping up browned bits, and simmer for 1 minute to create a glossy sauce to spoon over the veal.
How it's eaten in Italy
In Italy, it is served hot immediately with the pan juices and crusty bread to sop up the sauce.
