Veal Cutlets

Spaghetti

Method

Preparing Veal Cutlets

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes. Place flour in the first dish, beat the eggs in the second dish, and place breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper in the third dish.

  2. 2

    Bread the Veal

    Take each veal cutlet and coat it in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the beaten eggs, then coat it in the breadcrumb mixture. Set aside on a plate.

Cooking Veal

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  2. 4

    Fry the Cutlets

    Add the breaded veal cutlets to the skillet and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Assembling Veal Parmigiana

  1. 5

    Layer the Ingredients

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce. Place the fried veal cutlets on top, then add more marinara sauce over each cutlet. Top with equal amounts of mozzarella and provolone cheese.

  2. 6

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Cooking Spaghetti

  1. 7

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add salt and spaghetti. Cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 8

    Add Olive Oil

    Drizzle the spaghetti with olive oil and toss to coat.

Serving

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the veal parmigiana alongside the spaghetti. Garnish with additional marinara sauce if desired.
