Classic Italian fare is mostly done with chicken, but I like poor big eye baby cow (veal). Here comes the hate moool. Salty prosciutto, tender veal, sage, chicken stock, lemon, and white wine. The most dangerous part is making sure the food doesn’t stick to the pan. I hope you like. (Note: My wife and editor is not in any way endorsing this recipe because of the use of veal. But it’s good. )
1 pound veal scaloppini (2)
1/4 pound thinly cut prosciutto
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
2 sprigs fresh sage
1 cup wine
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup marinated artichokes
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup olive oil
Mix flour, salt, pepper and sage.
Beat eggs with milk.
Dip veal in flour mixture then in egg wash then in flour mixture. Let set for 5 minutes.

I know a lot of farmers. Plus it was 10.99 at my local mega mart.

I do eat veal—but haven’t for a long time. Maybe I’ll try this someday!

I love saltimbocco! I also love saying the word saltimbocco. It rolls off the tongue and sounds so exotic.
