Instructions:
-
Begin by patting the veal dry with paper towels, ensuring it’s free from excess moisture.
-
In a shallow dish, combine the salt, pepper, and flour. Dredge the veal in this seasoned flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.
-
Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter with the olive oil until sizzling. Carefully place the veal in the skillet and sauté each side for approximately 2 minutes, or until golden brown. Once cooked, transfer the veal to a heated platter and keep warm.
-
Reduce the heat to medium-low. In the same skillet, sauté the scallions for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Remove the scallions from the pan and set aside.
-
Deglaze the skillet by adding the dry white wine, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Allow the wine to reduce by half over high heat, approximately 2 minutes.
-
Lower the heat to low. Pour in the heavy cream and let it simmer gently for about 4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Add the mushrooms to the sauce and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
-
Stir in the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley, cooking for an additional minute to incorporate the flavors.
-
Pour the creamy sauce over the cooked veal, ensuring each piece is generously coated.
-
In a separate pan, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the shrimp and crabmeat, gently tossing until warmed through, approximately 2 minutes.
-
Spoon the warm seafood mixture over the veal, creating a decadent topping. Finish by sprinkling the remaining chopped parsley over the dish for a vibrant burst of freshness.
