Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the Parmigiana.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Veal Cutlets

    Pound the veal cutlets to about 1/2 inch thickness if they are not already, ensuring even cooking.

  3. 3

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour mixed with salt and pepper, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.

Breading the Cutlets

  1. 4

    Coat the Cutlets

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

Cooking the Cutlets

  1. 5

    Fry the Cutlets

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded cutlets for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembling the Parmigiana

  1. 6

    Layer the Ingredients

    In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Place the fried veal cutlets in a single layer over the sauce. Top each cutlet with marinara sauce and then sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

Baking

  1. 7

    Bake the Dish

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve Hot

    Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Parmigiana with a side of pasta or salad.
