Top round veal cutlets are a lean and tender cut of meat, perfect for a variety of dishes. Here’s a simple and delicious way to prepare them:
Ingredients
- 4 top round veal cutlets
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons capers (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preparation: Season the veal cutlets with salt and pepper. Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off any excess.
- Searing: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cutlets and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the cutlets from the skillet and set them aside.
- Making the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the butter and let it melt. Add the white wine, chicken broth, and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let the sauce reduce slightly.
- Adding the Capers (Optional): If you like capers, add them to the sauce for a burst of tangy flavor.
- Finishing Touch: Return the veal cutlets to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Let them simmer in the sauce for a couple of minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Garnish: Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the cutlets before serving.
Serving Suggestions
- Pasta: Serve the veal cutlets with a side of pasta tossed in the sauce.
- Vegetables: Pair with steamed or roasted vegetables such as green beans or asparagus.
- Potatoes: Mashed or roasted potatoes also complement the veal cutlets well.
