Veal Milanese Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Veal

   Pound the veal cutlets to about 1/4 inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Set Up Breading Station

   In three separate shallow dishes, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third.

3. 3

   Bread the Veal

   Dredge each veal cutlet in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere.

4. 4

   Fry the Cutlets

   In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add breaded veal cutlets and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

5. 5

   Prepare Broccoli Rabe Pesto

   In a food processor, blend blanched broccoli rabe, garlic, olive oil, pecorino cheese, salt, and pepper until smooth.

6. 6

   Prepare Creamed Mushrooms

   In a separate pan, sauté sliced mushrooms in olive oil until golden, then add cream and simmer until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

7. 7

   Serve

   Plate the veal cutlets, top with broccoli rabe pesto, and serve alongside creamed mushrooms. Garnish with additional pecorino cheese.
