Saltimbocca means “jump in the mouth,” and these small pieces of pork topped with prosciutto and sage are meant to be eaten in a single bite. Scaloppine for saltimbocca, which originated in Lazio are traditionally cut from the leg of the calf but they may be made with whatever is available and inexpensive. In this version, the pork is sautéed in garlic-flavored oil and finished with lemon and white wine.
Versatility is what you get with this dish, which borrows its flavors from the Italian staple saltimbocca, a combination of veal, prosciutto and sage. Here, the dark meat of chicken takes the place of veal, and instead of meat slices topped with the ham and herbs, there are plump bundles with the sage inside. Boneless chicken thighs make for easier slicing. Leaving the skin on to brown, provides more flavor, especially with some of the sage tucked underneath. Fingerling potatoes simmer as the chicken braises, and fresh peas contribute a touch of spring for a one-pot meal, not instant but hardly demanding. A final, judicious splash of balsamic vinegar intensifies the sauce. — Florence Fabricant
The classic combination of Calabrian chili and honey turns this quick meal into a show-stopper. These thin-cut boston butt steaks sear up beautifully, and the addition of Tempesta Artisan's sweet and spicy 'nduja quickly melted on top with honey adds a kick of flavor and complexity.
Introducing a new dinner kit! Cacio e pepe with pancetta is an easy and quick weekday meal.

But it takes years to perfect and every time you make it, the dish will taste slightly different, that is until you become a master!
