Make and share this Saltimboccas-Veal with Prosciutto and Fresh Sage recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Dancer

Categories     Veal

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 bunch fresh sage
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 lb thinly sliced veal scallopini
1/4 lb thinly sliced prosciutto
salt and pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
flour (for dredging)
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Pick stems off sage leaves, wash and dry.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a small saucepan until very hot and deep-fry sage leaves for 10-15 seconds.
  • Drain on paper towel and set aside.
  • Pound veal until very thin.
  • Lay slices of prosciutto and sage leaves on 3 of the slices of veal.
  • Lightly salt and pepper.
  • Top with the other 3 slices of veal.
  • Press together.
  • Cut each envelope into 3 even squares.
  • Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a sauté pan.
  • Place the saltimboccas into the flour, dredge on both sides and pat off excess.
  • Place in very hot sauté pan and cook about 1 minute.
  • Carefully turn over and cook the other side until the veal is cooked through and lightly browned.
  • As the saltimboccas are finished, place on a warm plate.
  • When they are all cooked, add wine and chicken stock to deglaze the pan.
  • Boil until reduced by half and add butter.
  • To serve, spoon a little of the sauce over each saltimbocca.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the saltimbocca will be. Look for veal scaloppini that are thin and tender, prosciutto that is salty and flavorful, and fresh sage leaves that are bright green and fragrant.
  • Pound the veal scaloppini until they are very thin. This will help them to cook evenly and quickly.
  • Season the veal scaloppini with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Wrap the prosciutto slices around the sage leaves before securing them to the veal scaloppini with a toothpick. This will help to keep the sage leaves from falling off during cooking.
  • Cook the saltimbocca over medium heat until the veal is cooked through and the prosciutto is browned and crispy. This should take about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Serve the saltimbocca immediately with a squeeze of lemon juice.

Conclusion:

Saltimbocca is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion meal. The combination of tender veal, salty prosciutto, and aromatic sage is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give saltimbocca a try. You won't be disappointed!
