Veal

Every now and then when we were young, Mom would make breaded veal. It was a delicious treat. Veal is the meat from bovines under one year old. Although there have been some issues with how veal was produced, currently you can find veal produced under humane conditions.

Breaded veal is simple to make. The recipe below is a basic breaded and pan-fry recipe. It can be dressed up by serving the veal with sauces, sides, or even as a sandwich. For example, this recipe can be quickly turned into veal parmesan with some tomato sauce and sliced parmesan cheese on top and them melted under a broiler. But I prefer to keep the veal simple and without topping or sauce to really savor the taste.

Veal 

• Veal cutlet
• 1 egg, beated
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• ground black pepper

Coat a skillet with oil and preheat to medium heat. In a shallow dish, beat the egg. In another shallow dish, mix the bread crumbs and pepper. Coat the veal cutlets in the egg. Dredge the veal through the bread crumbs to fully coat. Place the veal on the skillet and cook for about 8 minutes per side, or until browned. Enjoy!
