Method
Preparing the Veal
- 1
Prepare the Veal
Begin by placing the veal cutlets between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to gently pound the veal to about 1/4 inch thickness.

Dredge the Veal
In a shallow dish, spread the all-purpose flour. Dredge each veal cutlet in the flour, shaking off the excess flour.

Sauté the Veal
In a large skillet, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the floured veal cutlets and sauté for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove the veal from the skillet and set aside.
