Ultimate Veal Parmigiana Recipes

VEAL PARMIGIANA

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the bread crumbs, 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, salt and pepper in a pie plate. Set aside. In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs and water. Set aside. On a plate, spread the all-purpose flour. Coat the veal scallops with the flour and shake off the excess. Dip in the egg mixture and then coat with the bread crumb mixture, patting with your fingers to make the crumbs adhere.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the veal and saute until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, turn the cutlets and cook, 2 to 3 minutes more, adding a little more oil if the pan looks dry. Remove veal scallops to a plate and blot with paper towels.
• Lightly oil a flameproof baking pan or shallow baking dish. Spoon into the pan 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce. Arrange the veal scallops over the sauce, slightly overlapping them. Sprinkle with 4 tablespoons of the Parmesan cheese. Cover with the remaining tomato sauce. Top with the mozzarella slices and the remaining Parmesan cheese. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake until heated through, 20 to 30 minutes. If you wish to brown the top, remove the foil and run the dish briefly under a broiler.

VEAL PARM WITH SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• For the sauce and pasta: Add the pancetta and a bit of olive oil to a medium pot over low heat. Cook to render the fat, about 10 minutes. Add the onions and season with a large pinch of salt and a small pinch of crushed red pepper flakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes, then fill the can halfway with water and add that. Season to taste. Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring and tasting occasionally and adjusting the seasoning as needed, until thick, at least 30 minutes. (If the sauce reduces too much, add additional water.)
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
• For the veal: Line 2 baking sheets with wire racks and set aside. Beat the eggs in a shallow dish with a splash of water. Add the panko and Parmesan to another shallow dish. Add the flour to a third shallow dish. Heavily sprinkle the veal with salt. Dredge the veal pieces in the flour and shake off excess. Dip in the egg mixture, then coat both sides with breadcrumbs. Place on one of the rack-lined baking sheets.
• Preheat the broiler with the rack on the highest setting.
• Fill a medium pan with olive oil about 1/4-inch deep and heat over medium-high. Brown 1 piece of veal until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Blot on a paper towel to remove the excess oil and place on the clean cooling rack. Repeat with the second piece of veal.
• Evenly coat each veal piece with a few spoonfuls of sauce, a sprinkle of Parmesan and an even layer of mozzarella. Broil until the cheese has browned, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Discard the oil in the veal pan and wipe clean with a paper towel. Add the pasta and the remaining sauce to the pan; toss to combine. Sprinkle with Parmesan and drizzle with olive oil. Toss again to fully coat the pasta.
• Twirl half the pasta on a plate using tongs, then top with some sauce and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Place the veal next to the pasta and garnish with the basil. Serve with a small ramekin of extra sauce topped with a sprinkle of Parmesan. Repeat to make one more serving.

VEAL PICCATA WITH ANGEL HAIR AND PARMIGIANA-REGGIANO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook, stirring to separate the strands of pasta, until just al dente, about 4 minutes. Drain in a colander and return to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper, 2 tablespoons of the parsley, the basil, and the cheese and toss to coat. Cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, combine the flour with 1 teaspoon of the salt and 1 teaspoon of the black pepper in a shallow bowl.
• Lightly season both sides of each medallion with 1/8 teaspoon of the remaining salt and a pinch of the remaining pepper. One at a time, dredge the medallions in the seasoned flour, shaking to remove any excess.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the medallions in batches and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• Add the wine to the juices remaining in the pan and bring to a boil, stirring to deglaze the pan, and cook until the wine is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock, lemon juice, capers, and garlic and return to a boil, stirring, until the mixture is thickened, about 4 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon of the parsley. When the butter is melted, return all of the veal medallions to the pan and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
• To serve, divide the pasta among 4 large plates and arrange 2 veal medallions on each plate. Spoon the sauce over the veal and garnish each serving with 1/4 teaspoon of the remaining parsley. Serve immediately.
