Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash and slice the mushrooms. Zest and juice the lemons. Finely chop the fresh parsley and garlic if using.

  2. 2

    Season the Veal

    Season the veal cutlets with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sear the Veal

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the veal cutlets and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, add the butter. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are golden and tender. If using, add the chopped garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 5

    Deglaze the Pan

    If using white wine, pour it into the skillet to deglaze, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.

  4. 6

    Add Lemon Juice

    Add the lemon juice and zest to the mushrooms. Stir well to combine.

  5. 7

    Combine and Finish

    Return the veal cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Cook for an additional minute to heat through.

  6. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot with your choice of side.
