Instant Veal Piccata Recipes

VEAL PICCATA

Steps:

• Sprinkle the veal with the salt and pepper.
• Dredge the veal lightly in the flour, shaking off the excess. In a large saute pan, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter with the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add half of the veal scallops and cook just until brown, about 3 minutes per side.Using tongs, transfer the scaloppini to a plate. Repeat with the remaining veal. Cover loosely with foil while you make the sauce.
• To the same saute pan, add the broth, lemon juice, and capers. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan for extra flavor. Simmer for 2 minutes. Whisk the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter into the sauce. Return the veal to the pan just to heat through. Arrange the scaloppini on a platter, pour the sauce on top, and garnish with the parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Coat a large saute pan with olive oil and toss in the garlic cloves. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat. Cook the garlic until it becomes golden brown and is very aromatic. Remove the garlic and discard. Raise heat to high.
• Sprinkle the veal scallops with salt. Just before placing the veal scallops in the pan with the hot oil, dredge them in flour. Working in batches, flour the veal that is going directly in the pan; do not flour ahead. When the veal has browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side, remove to a platter and keep warm in the oven.
• When all the veal has been browned, ditch the oil in the pan. Add the wine and capers and reduce by half. Add in the chicken stock, season with salt, and cook until it has slightly thickened. Swirl in the butter. When the butter has melted and is bubbly, add in the lemon juice. Taste to make sure it is delicious, add the parsley, and spoon over the veal.

VEAL PICCATA WITH LEMON AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Place the veal in one tray and flour in the other.
• In a large non-stick skillet, and on medium heat, heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter until butter is melted. Toss in a few capers into the butter and oil mixture.
• Dredging Veal Cutlets: Begin by taking each piece of veal, one at a time, and placing it into the flour to coat both sides with flour. Shake off excess flour, and place it into the heated skillet with oil, butter, and capers.
• Saute the veal until golden brown around the edges, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. These will cook up quickly, so you may want to lower the heat a little while you are sauteing them in order not to overcook them.
• Then transfer the sauteed veal into a nearby dish. Cover them with a sheet of foil wrap to keep them warm.
• Continue with the rest of the veal until all of them are sauteed and done.
• NEXT, Deglaze the pan. Pour in the white wine and simmer on low heat while you stir the remaining bits on the bottom of the pan.
• RETURN all the veal back into the skillet. Add in the lemon juice, and remaining butter and stir until it's heated through. Optional: pour in the chicken broth for more flavor and additional sauce. Toss in a few more capers on top. (And, here is where you can add more butter and lemon juice to your preference).
• Cover with a lid and simmer on low heat for about 2 minutes. Turn off heat.
• Transfer the veal to a serving platter and pour the remaining warm lemon-buttery sauce over the veal, and toss a few more capers over them.
• Garnish with some lemon slices on the side and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Season the veal on both sides with the salt and pepper and dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess. Place the veal on a plate.
• In a 12-inch (30-cm) skillet over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons butter and the oil. Working in batches, add the veal cutlets to the skillet, being careful not to crowd the skillet.
• Cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 3 minutes total. (If using chicken or turkey, cook until no trace of pink remains, about 3 minutes per side.) Move to a platter or a baking sheet and loosely cover while you repeat with the remaining veal. If necessary, add more butter and oil to the skillet.
• Carefully add the wine to the skillet and cook, still over medium-high heat and scraping the bottom of the skillet, until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the stock and lemon slices and bring to a boil.
• Cook until the sauce is reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, lemon juice, capers, and parsley and season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat and tilt the pan to swirl the butter until it's incorporated into the sauce.
• Using tongs, place the cutlets back in the skillet, turn to coat them with the sauce, and let them warm through before arranging the cutlets on plates or a platter. Pour the remaining sauce over the cutlets and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl or plate combine the flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and pepper and stir to combine thoroughly. Quickly dredge the veal scallops in the seasoned flour mixture, shaking to remove any excess flour.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter and, working quickly and in batches if necessary, cook the veal until golden brown on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Deglaze the pan with wine and bring to a boil, scraping to remove any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. When the wine has reduced by half, add the chicken stock, chopped garlic, lemon juice and capers and cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Whisk in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, remaining 3 1/2 tablespoons of butter and the chopped parsley. When the butter has melted, return the veal scallops to the pan and cook until heated through and the sauce has thickened, about 1 minute. Garnish with parsley sprigs and serve immediately.
