Veal With Lemon and Capers

Diana Rattray
These tangy, lemony veal scallops are delicious with angel hair pasta and a salad or steamed vegetables.

Ingredients:

  • 1 to 1 1/2 pounds thin veal scallops
  • salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 green onions, thinly slice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained
  • juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine or chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley, or 1 teaspoon died parsley flakes
  • thinly sliced lemon, optional

Preparation:

Sprinkle veal scallops with salt and pepper; dredge in flour.

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with the olive oil. Add veal in a single layer and cook for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Remove to a warm platter and keep warm. Repeat with remaining veal.

To the hot skillet, add the green onions and garlic. Cook for 1 minute. Add capers, lemon juice, wine or chicken broth, remaining 1 tablespoon butter, and parsley. Simmer to reduce by about 1/2. Add veal back to the skillet, along with lemon slices, if using, and heat through. Serve with pasta or rice.
Serves 4.

"I would definitely make again. This was really good, fast and easy. The lemon and capers make it delish."
