Ingredients
- Pesto:
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) each lightly packed fresh sage and parsley
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) lemon juice
- 3/4 tsp (2 mL) salt
- 1/4 cup (50 mL) extra virgin olive oil
- 8 slices veal scaloppine or turkey scaloppine, about 1 lb (500 g)
- 1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper
Preparation
Pesto Combine sage and parsley in a mini chopper or blender. Add garlic, cheese, lemon juice and 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt. Pulse to combine. Add oil and blend until well mixed.
Place meat on a clean work surface. Pat dry and sprinkle evenly with pepper and remaining salt. Spread pesto evenly over each piece of meat, leaving a finger width border at the end. Roll up each piece tightly, starting at shorter end, and securely close with a toothpick.
Heat a large greased skillet over medium-high heat. Add rolls; cook, turning often, for 3 to 5 minutes or until browned on all sides. Cover and cook for 3 minutes longer or until cooked through. Remove picks before serving.
