Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 thin veal cutlets* (less than 1/8 inch thick; about 2 1/2 ounces each)
5 garlic cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
24 fresh sage leaves (each about 2 1/2 to 3 inches long)
16 thin slices prosciutto (about 1/4 pound total)
1/2 cup olive oil
2/3 cup dry white wine
*available by request from butcher

Steps:

  • Pat veal cutlets dry. With a knife mince and mash garlic to a paste with salt. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon garlic paste on one side of 1 veal cutlet and arrange 3 sage leaves in one layer over paste. Cover veal cutlet with 2 slices prosciutto and secure prosciutto and sage with 3 wooden picks. Arrange veal cutlet, prosciutto side down, on a tray and season with pepper. Prepare more saltimbocca in same manner.
  • In a 12-inch heavy skillet heat oil over high heat until it just begins to smoke and sauté 2 veal cutlets, prosciutto sides down, 30 seconds. Turn veal cutlets over and sauté 15 seconds more, or until veal is just cooked through. Transfer saltimbocca with tongs to a platter and keep warm, loosely covered with foil. Sauté remaining veal cutlets and keep warm in same manner.
  • Pour off oil from skillet and return skillet to high heat. Add wine carefully and deglaze skillet, scraping up brown bits. Boil wine until reduced to about 1/3 cup.
  • Discard wooden picks and serve saltimbocca drizzled with reduction sauce.
