Let's Get Started

- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the veal cutlets, prosciutto-side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the prosciutto is crispy.
- Flip the cutlets and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the veal is cooked through.
- Remove the cutlets from the skillet and set aside.
- Add the white wine to the skillet and bring to a simmer, scraping the bottom of the skillet to loosen any browned bits.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the wine has reduced by half.
- Return the cutlets to the skillet, prosciutto-side up, and cook for another minute, until they are heated through and coated with the sauce.
- Serve the saltimbocca alla Fiorentina hot, with the sauce spooned over the top.
