Cook the schnitzels in heated oiled frying pan, bacon seam side down, turning occasionally, until cooked. Remove from pan, keep warm. Pour the wine into the pan, bring to the boil, stirring until the the liquid has reduced by half. Drizzle the sauce over the saltimbocca and serve with chips and a salad or as you like.
