Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 4-6 ounces each) Veal cutlets
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Dry white wine
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
- 4 pieces (for garnish) Lemon wedges
Instructions
Place the veal cutlets between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound them to about 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet.
Season both sides of the veal cutlets with salt and black pepper.
Spread the flour on a shallow plate. In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and water until well blended.
Dredge each veal cutlet in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip them into the egg mixture, ensuring they are completely coated on both sides.
Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Pan-fry the veal cutlets in batches for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and just cooked through. Transfer the cooked cutlets to a plate and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the white wine to the skillet. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the wine simmer for 2 minutes, reducing slightly.
Stir in the chicken broth and lemon juice, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes to allow the sauce to reduce and thicken slightly.
Return the veal cutlets to the skillet, spooning some sauce over them. Simmer for another 2 minutes to heat the veal through.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until melted, creating a rich, glossy sauce.
Garnish the dish with chopped parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
