Breaded Veal Milanesas Recipes

BAKED VEAL MILANESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk egg, lemon juice, and milk in a small bowl. Place flour in a separate shallow bowl; mix Italian crumbs, pecorino Romano cheese, and adobo seasoning in a third bowl.
• Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Dredge each veal piece in flour, dip in egg mixture, and press into bread crumb mixture to coat both sides. Pan-fry the breaded veal cutlets in the hot oil until crumbs are lightly browned and coating is set, about 1 minute per side. Transfer veal to a baking dish.
• Bake cutlets in the preheated oven until juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer veal onto 4 serving plates and top each cutlet with 1/4 of the arugula; sprinkle raisins over the arugula. Drizzle a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar and 1 teaspoon olive oil over each serving.

WIENER SCHNITZEL (BREADED VEAL CUTLETS)

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the bread into fine crumbs. Transfer the breadcrumbs to a shallow bowl or lipped plate.
• Put the flour in a shallow bowl or plate. Break the eggs into another shallow bowl and whisk with the milk, and season with salt, and pepper to taste.
• To bread the meat: Dredge a cutlet in the flour, shaking off the excess; then dip it into the eggs, and finally coat the meat evenly with the breadcrumbs. Set on a piece of waxed paper or baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining cutlet.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. While the butter is still foaming add the breaded cutlets and cook, swirling the skillet in a tight circle (this keeps the cutlets moving around the skillet), until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes for the first side. Turn the meat and cook 1 minute on the second side to crisp the breading. Transfer to a plate and cover very loosely with foil while you cook the other cutlet. Serve with the lemon wedges.

VEAL MILANESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 175 degrees F.
• In a shallow dish, beat eggs and season with salt and pepper. Pour flour into another shallow dish. Mix together the bread crumbs, basil and thyme in a third shallow dish. Have ready one large plate.
• Season the veal with salt and pepper. Working with 1 piece of veal at a time, dip it first in the flour, shaking off excess. Next, place the floured veal into the beaten eggs, coating completely. Place the veal into the bread crumb mixture and gently press crumbs into the veal. Set aside on large plate and continue with remaining veal slices.
• In a large skillet with high sides, heat the oil to 375 degrees F. Have ready a baking sheet fitted with a rack. Carefully place 2 pieces of breaded veal in the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 6 to 8 minutes total. Place cooked veal on rack, season with salt and place in oven to keep warm. Continue with remaining veal.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Gently pound cutlets to 1/8-inch thickness between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with flat side of meat pounder or with rolling pin. Pat dry and season with salt and pepper.
• Beat together eggs and garlic in large shallow bowl. Place breadcrumbs in another large shallow bowl. Dip veal, 1 piece at a time, in egg mixture, letting excess drip off. Dredge in bread crumbs, pressing to coat completely. Repeat with remaining pieces of veal.
• Heat butter and 2 tablespoons oil in large heavy skillet over moderately high heat, until foam subsides. Sauté chops in 2 batches (without crowding) until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined platter and keep warm.
• Toss arugula with vinegar in large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add tomatoes and remaining 6 tablespoons oil and toss well. Serve chops with salad and mustard.
