Saltimbocca is a classic Italian dish, widely believed to have originated in Rome, renowned for its simple yet flavorful combination of ingredients. The traditional recipe features veal cutlets wrapped in thin slices of prosciutto and fresh sage, then pan-seared and often simmered with white wine or butter for added richness. Variations can include chicken or pork as substitutes for veal. While Saltimbocca delivers a savory and aromatic taste, its nutritional profile includes a high protein content due to the lean meat base. However, the dish can be higher in sodium due to the prosciutto and may contain saturated fats depending on the cooking method and butter usage. To balance its health aspects, lighter versions can be prepared with minimal added fat or served alongside nutrient-rich vegetables. Saltimbocca remains a celebrated dish for its elegant simplicity and indulgent flavors.
