Cook's Notes:
Prosciutto is a salty Italian thin-sliced ham that can be found in grocery stores in the deli section.
Add more white wine to the skillet if there is not enough liquid after cutlets have been removed and stir over high heat for 1 minute.
You can substitute chicken broth for the white wine and chicken breast for the veal, but you need to make sure to pound it very thin so they cook quickly, otherwise the sage leaves will burn.
