Veal Cutlets

Method

Prepare the Veal Cutlets

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up a breading station by placing flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in separate shallow dishes.

  2. 2

    Bread the Veal Cutlets

    Season the veal cutlets with salt and black pepper. Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off the excess, dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture.

Cook the Veal Cutlets

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.

  2. 4

    Fry the Cutlets

    Add the breaded veal cutlets to the skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Prepare the Meat Sauce

  1. 5

    Cook the Ground Beef

    In a separate saucepan, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Cook until no longer pink, breaking it apart with a spoon.

  2. 6

    Add Onion and Garlic

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the beef, cooking until the onion is translucent.

  3. 7

    Simmer the Sauce

    Stir in the canned tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15-20 minutes. Stir in the chopped fresh basil just before serving.

Serve

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Place the cooked veal cutlets on a serving platter and generously spoon the meat sauce over them.

  2. 9

    Garnish and Enjoy

    Optionally, garnish with additional grated Parmesan and fresh basil. Serve hot.
