  1. Season the veal cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Place a sage leaf on each cutlet, then cover with a slice of prosciutto. Secure with a toothpick.
  3. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the veal cutlets, prosciutto-side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the prosciutto is crispy.
  5. Flip the cutlets and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the veal is cooked through.
  6. Remove the cutlets from the skillet and set aside.
  7. Add the white wine to the skillet and bring to a simmer, scraping the bottom of the skillet to loosen any browned bits.
  8. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the wine has reduced by half.
  9. Return the cutlets to the skillet, prosciutto-side up, and cook for another minute, until they are heated through and coated with the sauce.
