Veal Cutlet and Parmigiana
This page delivers two interconnected recipes: a basic Veal Cutlet and its elevated counterpart, Veal Parmigiana.
Perfect for home cooks looking to recreate Italian-American classics without fuss, these instructions emphasize fresh ingredients
and easy techniques.
The Veal Cutlet recipe starts with thinly sliced, boneless veal—a tender base that’s key to the dish’s success.
You’ll need eggs, grated Romano cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, parsley flakes, and breadcrumbs.
The process is delightfully hands-on: Beat the eggs with a generous sprinkle of cheese and spices for a flavorful batter.
Dip the veal in breadcrumbs, then the egg mix, and coat again for that crispy exterior.
A smart tip here is to chill the breaded cutlets in the fridge to set the coating before frying them low and slow in oil or shortening
for 20-30 minutes.
The Veal Parmigiana transforms those fried cutlets into a cheesy, saucy masterpiece.
Ingredients are minimal: the prepped veal cutlets, mozzarella cheese, spaghetti sauce, and more grated cheese.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, then layer it all in a casserole dish—starting with sauce at the bottom, followed by alternating veal,
sauce, grated cheese, and mozzarella.
Bake covered for about 20-30 minutes until everything’s heated through and the cheese melts into gooey perfection.
The recipes harken back to traditional methods, likely passed down through generations.
If you’re craving a hearty, Italian-inspired dish, this is a great starting point.
