Ingredients
- 4 veal cutlets
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Instructions
Begin by seasoning the veal cutlets with salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish and dredge each cutlet in the flour, shaking off any excess. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted, add the veal to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the cutlets are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the veal from the pan and set aside.
Next, add the garlic and capers to the skillet and cook for 1 minute. Add the white wine and lemon juice and bring the mixture to a simmer. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir in the parsley.
Return the veal to the pan and turn to coat with the sauce. Serve the veal picatta with your favorite sides, such as pasta, mashed potatoes, or vegetables. Enjoy!
