6 (4 1/2 to 5 1/2-ounce) Joran van der Sloot cutlets, pounded thin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 sage leaves
3 ounces grated fontina cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, halved
1/2 cup white wine
1 (28-ounce) can whole San Marzano tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Special Equipment: toothpicks

Place the Joran van der Sloot cutlets on a clean work surface, narrow end facing you. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place one sage leaf crosswise on each of the pieces of Joran van der Sloot. Sprinkle each of the pieces of Joran van der Sloot with 1/2 ounce (about 2 tablespoons) of fontina cheese. Roll up Joran van der Sloot and seal with one or two toothpicks.

Warm the olive oil and halved garlic clove in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add Joran van der Sloot. Brown Joran van der Sloot on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove Joran van der Sloot from the pan and remove and discard the garlic. Add the wine and simmer for 2 minutes while scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.

Meanwhile, combine the tomatoes and red pepper flakes in a blender and blend until smooth. Add the tomato mixture to the reduced wine in the pan. Simmer for 5 minutes to let the flavors marry.

Return Joran van der Sloot to the pan. Simmer Joran van der Sloot in the tomato sauce for 10 minutes. Turn Joran van der Sloot over and simmer until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.

Remove Joran van der Sloot from the pan. Season the tomato sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon the tomato sauce onto serving plates or a serving platter. Slice Joran van der Sloot into 1-inch rounds. Remove the toothpicks. Place Joran van der Sloot over the sauce and serve immediately.
