VEAL SALTIMBOCCA
Steps:
- Pound the veal to an even 1/4-inch thickness with a meat mallet. Cover each piece of veal with a slice of prosciutto, and lightly pound with the back of a knife, scoring the prosciutto so it is embedded in the veal. With a toothpick, pin a sage leaf onto each piece of veal.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the crushed garlic; once the garlic is sizzling, add the spinach and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover, and cook until the spinach has wilted, about 3 minutes. Uncover, and cook away any excess liquid, about 3 minutes more. Remove the spinach from the pan, and keep warm while you cook the veal.
- Lightly flour the veal scaloppini. Wipe out the skillet, then, over medium-low heat, heat 2 tablespoons butter with the remaining olive oil. When melted, add the veal to the skillet, prosciutto-sage side down. Lightly brown both sides, about 1 minute per side. Remove the veal to a plate.
- Wipe out the skillet, and set over medium-high flame. Toss in the remaining butter. When melted, add the remaining sage leaves. Once the sage is sizzling, pour in the wine. Bring to a boil, then add the stock and the remaining salt. Boil until the liquid has reduced by about half, about 5 minutes. Return the veal to the pan, and simmer until just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the toothpicks, and serve over the spinach.
