 Veal Parmesan

 

A quick and easy recipe for this favorite...
 

1/2 cup 

 

flour, sprinkled with salt and pepper

 

2 large 

 

eggs, beaten with a splash of milk

 

3/4 cup 

 

Italian dried breadcrumbs, sprinkled with garlic powder and 2 T. fresh Parmesan cheese

 

4 cutlets 

 

of veal, pounded to ¼" thickness

 

4 Tbs 

 

olive oil

 

1 cup 

 

homemade or canned Italian-seasoned tomato sauce

 

2 oz 

 

mozzarella cheese, sliced

 

4 Tbs 

 

freshly grated Parmesan cheese

 

 

1

Place the flour on a plate or a piece of waxed paper. Place the egg in a wide bowl. Place the bread crumbs on a separate plate. Dip the veal in the flour; coat both sides and shake off excess. Then dip in the egg wash. Finally, dip in the bread crumbs and coat both sides. Place on a plate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

2

Heat a large skillet over high heat. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the veal, being careful not to crowd the pan. Fry until nicely browned, 2 or 3 minutes per side, adjusting the heat if it browns too fast. Remove from pan and do the second batch, adding the remaining olive oil as needed.

3

Place veal on a lightly oiled or sprayed baking sheet. Spread 3 tablespoons of sauce on each slice of veal. Top each with one-fourth of the mozzarella slices and 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan cheese. Place under a hot broiler on high heat until cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
