👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   {'id': 'step_0', 'step': 1, 'text': 'Remove silvery membrane from tenderloin with a sharp knife; reserve trimmings. Cut the small "head" pieces of tenderloin where there is a natural separation; reserve. (This is optional.) Chop reserved trimmings very fine; set aside.'}

2. 2

   {'id': 'step_1', 'step': 2, 'text': 'Cut tenderloin in half crosswise to make 2 equal portions. Cut each half in half lengthwise to make 4 pieces. Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate until needed.'}

3. 3

   {'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Melt butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Add reserved trimmings; cook and stir until caramelized and nicely browned, 4 to 5 minutes.

Remove top sheet of plastic wrap; flip each piece pork. Season generously with salt and black pepper; dust very lightly with about 2 teaspoons flour. Flip each piece pork; sprinkle with black pepper. Press 3 sage leaves onto surface of each piece pork; cover completely with prosciutto, cutting or tearing strips to fit. A bit of overlap is okay.'}
