Veal Picatta Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Veal

    Season the veal medallions with salt and black pepper. Dredge each medallion in flour, shaking off any excess.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Veal

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the veal medallions and sauté for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and capers.

  4. 4

    Combine and Serve

    Return the veal to the skillet and simmer for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Stir in the remaining butter until melted. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
