🇮🇹 Italian

Butter, sage, prosciutto, wine — four flavours that turn quick-seared Prosciutto into saltimbocca alla romana. The pan sauce reduces to a syrup while you plate, so everything lands on the table hot and glistening.

Instructions

1
Season the Prosciutto lightly (the prosciutto brings salt) and top each piece with sage and a fold of prosciutto, secured with a toothpick.
2
Melt butter in a heavy pan over medium-high heat until it stops foaming.
3
Cook the Prosciutto sage-side up for two minutes so the underside seals, then turn and give it ninety seconds more.
4
Rest the Prosciutto on a warm plate while the wine deglazes the pan, bubbling down with the sage leaves and pan juices to a syrup.
5
Swirl in a knob of cold butter off the heat for a sauce that clings like silk.
6
Spoon the sauce over the Prosciutto and serve immediately — saltimbocca never waits.

Chef's tip

A final squeeze of lemon just before serving lifts every other flavour.
