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.

Makes 4 servings.
