Turkey Saltimbocca

1. 1

   If the scallopini are not of uniform thickness, flatten between parchment paper using the smooth side of a meat mallet, to even them out.

2. 2

   Place a slice of prosciutto, and then two sage leaves, on each scallopine. Using flat toothpicks like straight pins, secure the sage leaves and prosciutto slices to the scallopini. (See the photo. You'll remove the toothpicks before serving. I left them in on one of them in the photo, for the purpose of letting you see how I did it.)

3. 3

   Heat a medium skillet and then add the oil. When the oil is very hot but not smoking, put the scallopini in the oil, sage and prosciutto side down and cook for 2-3 minutes, depending on the thickness of the cutlet. Turn them over and cook for 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat and cover the skillet; let sit for 1-2 minutes. Remove to a warm plate and cover loosely.

4. 4

   Shake any remaining seasoned flour from the plate into the skillet and give it a few stirs. Over medium heat, add the wine and scrape up any bits on the bottom of the skillet. Let it reduce by half and then add the stock. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the pan sauce reaches the desired consistency. Test for salt. Add freshly ground pepper.

5. 5

   Remove the toothpicks from the scallopini. Spoon on the sauce. Serve with a smile.
