Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Veal

    Pound the veal scaloppini to about 1/4 inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and black pepper. Dredge the veal in flour, shaking off the excess.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Veal

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil and one tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the veal and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the veal from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Pour in the white wine and lemon juice, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly reduced.

  4. 4

    Combine and Finish

    Return the veal to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, spooning the sauce over the meat. Stir in the remaining butter until melted. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the veal hot with the sauce drizzled over it, alongside roasted potatoes and vegetables.
