10 ingredients

1. 2 lb chicken cutlets
2. 6 servings pepper
3. 1/2 cups butter
4. 8 sage leaves
5. 1/2 lb prosciutto
6. 2 eggs
7. 2 oz fontina cheese
8. 1 cup wine
9. 1 tbsp sage
10. 1/2 stick butter

Instructions

1. Pound chicken cutlets to 1/8-inch thickness: 
2. Put the chicken cutlets between two sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper and pound to an even thickness of about 1/8-inch.
3. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
4. Fry sage leaves in butter: Melt butter in a large sauté pan on medium heat. Once the butter starts to foam, add the sage leaves to the pan and cook them for a minute or two, turning them half way through the cooking.
5. Remove them from the pan.
6. Place one or two fried sage leaves on each chicken cutlet and wrap with a thin layer of prosciutto.
7. Dip cutlets in beaten egg, cook in pan: Prepare a shallow bowl with the beaten eggs. Check that the foaming butter in the pan is golden and not browned. (If it has browned too much, start over with new butter, melting it until it foams.)
8. Working in batches so that you don't crowd the pan, dip each prosciutto-wrapped chicken cutlet in beaten egg and place it in the pan.
9. Cook them for a couple minutes on each side, until just cooked through.
10. Remove from the pan.
11. Cover with slice of cheese, then broil: Preheat the oven broiler. Arrange the chicken cutlets on a baking sheet and cover each cutlet with a slice of cheese.
12. Place under the broiler just until the cheese melts, about a minute.
