Saltimbocca Alla Genovese

Ingredients

Directions

Trim the veal scallops so that they are approximately all the same size.

Sprinkle a little salt and pepper on each slice of meat.

Place 2 or more leaves of fresh or dried sage on each veal slice, or sprinkle about a scant 1/4 teaspoon ground sage on each.

Cut prosciutto to the same size as veal slices.

Top each veal slice with a prosciutto slice.

Roll up and secure with toothpicks or tie with kitchen thread.

Coat each veal roll lightly with flour, shaking off excess flour.

Divide butter between 2 large frying pans; heat it without browning.

Over medium heat, cook veal rolls about 5 minutes, or until golden brown on all sides.

Reduce heat and add 1/2 cup marsala and 1/4 cup beef bouillon to each frying pan.

Cover frying pans and cook for 5 to 10 minutes longer; cooking time depends on the size and thickness of the rolls.

Shake the pans frequently to prevent sticking.

If necessary, add a little more beef bouillon; there should be 1 to 2 tablespoons sauce for each veal bird.

Transfer the cooked veal birds to a heated serving dish and spoon the sauce over them.

Serve immediately and very hot with a tossed green salad.
