Instructions

Prepare the Rolls

  1. 1Place pork cutlets between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to about 1/8-inch thickness.
  2. 2Season pork lightly with salt and pepper. Top each cutlet with a slice of prosciutto and a sage leaf.
  3. 3Roll up each cutlet tightly, securing with a toothpick if necessary.
  4. 4Dredge the rolls in flour, shaking off excess.

Cook the Rolls

  1. 1Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. 2Sear the pork rolls on all sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. 3Transfer the seared rolls to a plate and set aside. Keep warm.

Make the Sauce

  1. 1Pour off excess fat from the skillet, leaving about 1 tablespoon. Return the skillet to medium heat.
  2. 2Add white wine, chicken broth, balsamic vinegar, and 2 sage leaves to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  3. 3Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, or until it has reduced slightly and thickened.
  4. 4Return the pork rolls to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover and simmer for another 5-10 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through.
  5. 5Remove toothpicks, if used. Discard sage leaves from sauce before serving.

Tips

  • Ensure pork cutlets are pounded thinly and uniformly for even cooking and easy rolling.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing; cook in batches if necessary for a good crust.
  • Serve hot with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious balsamic-white wine sauce.
