  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ Teaspoon Black Pepper Ground

For the Mushroom Marsala Sauce
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 cup marsala wine dry

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Start out by prepping fresh produce and keeping them separately aside. Chop fresh garlic, slice clean mushrooms, and chop the parsley (which is your garnish). Keep aside for later.
For the Veal Scallopini
    Cup of Yum
  1. Place raw sliced veal cutlets next to each other on a stable and clean working surface. Pat dry with a kitchen paper towel if they are damp or wet. Pound each with a meat mallet so that they stretch out a bit. That also makes the meat fibers tender.
  2. Combine in a shallow plate the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper and Italian seasoning (or oregano). *Note
  3. Drag each veal slice through the seasoned flour so that the veal is coated on both sides. Keep aside.
  4. Heat up a large skillet with the olive oil and butter. Wait for the butter to melt and the skillet to be hot enough to cook the meat. Keep on a medium heat setting.
  5. Place a 3-5 veal cutlets into the hot pan (don't overcrowd) and flash cook them on both sides, for a minute at most. They cook superfast, so be attentive. The moment they turn gray, turn around to cook the remaining raw side or take out when both sides are cooked. Control heat and place cooked cutlets into a dish aside.
  6. Repeat the process, but always melt some butter first before adding the next veal batch.
For the Sauce
  1. When you are done with the meat, prepare the mushroom sauce. Keep the pan on a medium-low heat setting and drop in some butter and olive oil.
  2. Stir in chopped garlic and sauté for a minute.
  3. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté mushroom soft for a few minutes over a medium-high heat setting.
  4. Deglaze by pouring in your Marsala wine, followed by the beef broth. Mix it all well.
  5. Cook down the mushroom wine mix for a few minutes to infuse everything.
  6. Reduce the heat to a lower setting and pour in the cream. Reduced heat is important or else the cream will curdle. Mix it all in and simmer for 1–2 minutes.
Complete your Veal Marsala
  1. Place the cooked veal slices back into the pan to the sauce, and cover them with the sauce and cooked mushroom pieces.
  2. Take from the heat source and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the meal in the skillet.
  3. Serve hot.

Notes

  • I recommend smaller, but thinly sliced, veal cutlets so that it's easier to coat and cook them.
  • You can use either Italian seasoning or oregano. I used oregano because that's what I had when I filmed/took the pictures. But I have made this recipe also with Italian seasoning, which turns out more flavorful.
  • You don't have to place a clean wrap over the veal cutlets to pound them. This is only necessary with super tender meat cuts or meats such as chicken where the flesh can rip apart.
  • We combine butter and olive oil because it's the best flavor combo. The butter alone isn't oily enough.
  • Serves 3-4, depending on the portion size.
