SPEZZATINO DI VITELLO ALLA SALVIA (ITALIAN BRAISED VEAL WITH SAGE)

Steps:

• Over medium heat, melt the butter in the olive oil. Add the shallots, and cook slowly, stirring constantly, until they are translucent. Remove shallots and set aside.
• Lightly dredge veal pieces in flour. Add to the pan, and cook over medium heat until well browned.
• Add sage leaves and wine and mix well. Return the shallots to the pan, and lower the heat. Cover and simmer for approximately 1 hour, stirring occasionally. If the wine cooks down too much, add a little water to the pan.
• Just before serving, taste and add salt if necessary and desired.

INVOLTINI DI POLLO ALLA SALVIA (CHICKEN ROULADES WITH SAGE)

Steps:

• Once you have thinly pounded out your chicken breasts, cut each breast into two strips {slightly wider than your bacon slices}. Season chicken strips with salt and pepper.
• Place 2 sage leaves onto each strip of chicken. Roll chicken strips. Roll bacon over chicken roll and secure with toothpicks. Continue until all pieces are rolled.
• Into a frying pan add olive oil and heat over medium heat. Once oil is hot, add chicken roulades and cook, turning frequently, until bacon has brown/crisped on all sides. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking for approximately 10-15 minutes until chicken has cooked through {cooking time will depend on thickness of chicken}.
