Italian saltimbocca is a luxurious combination of juicy meat, crispy prosciutto, and fragrant sage. Traditionally made with veal, this recipe makes a great substitute for a boneless pork loin cutlet. Don't wash the pan after frying; instead, use the remaining delicious juices to make a light sauce for the saltimbocca. Serve with sautéed spinach.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 220°C, season pork with salt and pepper.
- Top each patty with a sage leaf, then wrap in 2 slices of prosciutto. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties, sage-side down, and cook, turning once, until the prosciutto is crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet (set the skillet aside) and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the patty registers 145°F (63°C), about 8 minutes.
- Top each patty with a slice of provolone cheese; bake until melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the spinach in a microwave-safe bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon water, and a pinch of salt. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 3 minutes, until the spinach is wilted; drain. Sprinkle with half the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the same pan over medium heat; add the shallots and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 minutes. Add the broth and simmer until reduced by half. Add the remaining lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide the pork among plates, pour the sauce from the pan over it. Serve with spinach and lemon wedges.
