Ingredients
Method
- Heat up your skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of canola oil and 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Wait for that magic moment when the oil starts to shimmer—that’s when you know it’s hot enough.
- Gently place your floured veal in the pan, giving each piece enough room to brown properly.
- Cook each side just until lightly golden, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Once done, transfer the veal to a warm plate and pop it in the oven at a low temperature to keep it cozy while you make the sauce.
- For that signature piccata sauce—the real star of the show—melt the remaining 6 tablespoons of butter in the same pan, capturing all those flavorful brown bits from cooking the veal.
- Add the juice of 1 lemon and 2 tablespoons of capers, using your spatula to scrape up all the delicious fond from the bottom of the pan.
- Let this mixture simmer for about 30 seconds until slightly thickened.
- Finally, plate your veal, drizzle that luxurious sauce over top, and finish with a sprinkle of 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley.
Notes
For best results, use thin veal cutlets and avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even browning and a perfect sauce.
