Ingredients
4 chicken cutlets4 slices proscuitto1/2 c. flour1 tsp. pepper2 T. chopped sage leaves4 whole sage leaves1-2 T. olive oil1/2 c. white wine2 T. cold butter
Directions
Pat cutlets dry.

Mix flour and pepper with a wisk. Dip cutlets in flour, patting excess flour off each side. Lay on a plate and top each cutlet with 1/2 T. chopped sage, then top with a slice of proscuitto (trim any excess proscuitto so it fits perfectly).

Heat olive oil in large skillet. When oil is hot, drop whole sage leaves in and fry a few seconds on each side. Remove to paper towels (they will crisp as they cool).

Place each cutlet proscuitto-side down in the pan and cook without disturbing for 3 minutes. Turn and cook an additional 2-3 minutes, till cooked through. Remove cutlets from pan and place on wire rack over a baking sheet to drain. Keep warm while making the pan sauce.

Remove pan from heat and add wine, scraping up browned bits. Return to medium heat and whisk in butter, 1 T. at a time. Serve cutlets with sauce spooned on top and a crispy sage leaf.
