This started out as 'Shrimp Wrapped in Prosciutto', but, as luck would have it, I couldn't get nice large shrimp. We adjust. As long as I was sautéing, I added a few walnuts.... The veal cooks very quickly. You can either keep it warm in the oven or add it back to the sauce to re-warm if you prefer to have it less well-done. And we fried the rest of the gnocchi....

The tender veal scallops cook quickly and are finished with a silky wine sauce. I can't get Marsala so I use Madeira. Both are a slightly sweet, fortified wine. Chicken breasts, pounded thin, or turkey scallops would make good substitutes. Both would need a bit more cooking. Pounding the veal is optional.

This is quickly done and best if done at the last minute. A sprinkling of lemon juice and sea salt is all that's needed to let the spinach shine. The leaves should be barely wilted.
