Ingredients

• 4 pieces pork cutlets
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 3 cloves garlic cloves
• 8 leaves fresh sage leaves
• 4 slices prosciutto
• 0.5 cup dry white wine
• 0.5 cup chicken stock
• 1 whole lemon
• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Directions

Step 1

Season the pork cutlets on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Lightly dredge the cutlets in flour, shaking off the excess.

Step 3

Heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the pork cutlets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove the cutlets from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.

Step 5

Lower the heat to medium-low. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet.

Step 6

Add the minced garlic cloves and fresh sage leaves to the skillet. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Lay a slice of prosciutto on top of each cooked cutlet and return them to the skillet.

Step 8

Increase the heat to medium and pour in the white wine. Let it simmer for 1 minute, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the skillet.

Step 9

Add the chicken stock and simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.

Step 10

Squeeze the juice of half the lemon over the cutlets. Slice the other half of the lemon into wedges for serving.

Step 11

Sprinkle the cutlets with chopped parsley and spoon the sauce over them.

Step 12

Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor.
