Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Penne

    Cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Veal

    Pound the veal cutlets to about 1/4 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Batter the Veal

    Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.

  4. 4

    Cook the Veal

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Add the veal cutlets and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

  5. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add lemon juice and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until melted.

  6. 6

    Combine and Serve

    Return the veal to the skillet to coat with the sauce. Serve veal over the cooked penne pasta, garnished with fresh parsley.
