Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Veal cutlets
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cups White wine
- 0.75 cups Chicken stock
- 0.25 cups Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 whole Lemon, juiced
Instructions
Season the veal cutlets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Dredge each cutlet lightly in the flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the veal cutlets to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze the pan with white wine, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the chicken stock and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the heavy cream, whisking to combine, and let the sauce cook for 3-4 minutes, until it thickens slightly.
Return the veal cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Let them cook in the sauce for 3-5 minutes, or until heated through.
Stir in the freshly chopped parsley and lemon juice for a burst of freshness.
Serve the veal cutlets hot, drizzled with the sauce, alongside your choice of sides such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or pasta.
