Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Veal

    Pound the veal cutlets to about 1/4 inch thickness between two sheets of plastic wrap. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Assembly

  1. 2

    Assemble the Dish

    Place one slice of prosciutto on each veal cutlet and top with a slice of mozzarella cheese. Press gently to adhere.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Veal

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted and sizzling, add the veal cutlets, prosciutto side down. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.

  2. 4

    Flip the Cutlets

    Carefully flip the veal cutlets using tongs. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the other side is browned and the cheese is melted. Remove the veal from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the white wine, lemon juice, artichoke hearts, capers, and sage leaves. Stir well and bring to a simmer for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly.

  4. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Return the veal cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Cook for another minute to heat through. Serve immediately with additional sauce drizzled on top.
