Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 large egg, beaten

  • 1 ½ cups Italian breadcrumbs

  • 8 (2 ounce) pieces veal scaloppini

  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice

  • ¼ cup white wine

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

  • 1 (15 ounce) can chicken broth,

  • ¼ teaspoon garlic pepper

  • ¼ teaspoon lemon pepper

  • 1 cup heavy cream

Directions

  1. Put egg and breadcrumbs in two separate shallow bowls. Dip veal into beaten egg, then press into breadcrumbs. Gently shake off excess, and set aside.

  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add breaded scaloppini and cook until golden brown on both sides and no longer pink on the inside, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate. Tent lightly with foil to keep warm.

  3. Add lemon juice and white wine to the skillet. Increase heat to high, and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 minute. Dissolve cornstarch in 2 tablespoons chicken broth and set aside. Add remaining chicken broth, garlic pepper, and lemon pepper to the skillet. Bring to a boil.

  4. Stir in dissolved cornstarch, and cook until sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Remove sauce from heat, then whisk in heavy cream. Place veal on a serving platter, top with sauce, and serve.
