Piccata di Vitello

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Veal

    Season the veal scallopini with salt and black pepper. Dredge each piece lightly in flour, shaking off any excess.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Veal

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add half of the veal and sauté for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Repeat with the remaining veal, adding more olive oil if necessary.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Allow it to simmer for 1-2 minutes. Add the lemon juice, capers, and the remaining olive oil. Stir well.

  4. 4

    Finish the Dish

    Return the veal to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes to heat through. Add butter and parsley, stirring until the butter is melted and well combined.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the veal piccata hot, accompanied by mashed potatoes and a vegetable medley.
