Instructions:
-
Prepare the Veal Cutlets:
- Cover your work surface with plastic wrap.
- Place the veal cutlets on the plastic, leaving space between each one.
- Cover with another piece of plastic wrap.
- Pound the cutlets to 1/8-inch thickness using a meat mallet.
- Season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
-
-
Coat the Cutlets:
- Place the flour in a shallow bowl.
- Place the breadcrumbs in another shallow bowl.
- In a separate shallow bowl, beat the egg and milk together.
- Dredge each flattened veal chop in flour, shaking off any excess.
- Dip in the egg wash, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Coat both sides with breadcrumbs.
-
Cook the Veal:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and butter in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sauté the veal until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes per side.
- Once cooked, transfer the veal to a plate and set aside.
- Add the bacon to the skillet and fry until crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside.
-
Prepare the Sauce:
- In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the diced onion. Cook until translucent, about 6 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the red wine and cook, stirring, to deglaze the pan for about 2 minutes.
- Stir in the Italian tomatoes, tomato puree, basil, parsley, oregano, and dried red pepper flakes.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium.
- Add the cooked bacon back to the skillet and simmer for approximately 10 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly, stirring occasionally.
-
Assemble and Bake:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Arrange the cooked veal cutlets on top of the sauce in the skillet, spooning additional sauce over each one.
- Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over each cutlet, then place a slice of mozzarella on top.
- Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook until the veal is tender and the cheese is melted, approximately 5-6 minutes.
-
Serve:
- Serve the Veal Parmesan immediately, allowing 2 cutlets per person.
- Optionally, serve with noodles or your favorite side dish for a complete meal.
Enjoy the delicious flavors of homemade Veal Parmesan, perfect for a cozy dinner at home or for entertaining guests!
