Steps:
- Lightly season the scaloppini with salt and pepper. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter and combine with the nutmeg, lemon zest, and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Mix with the egg yolks, stirring together until well mixed. Dip the scaloppini in the mixture, coating both sides, and then dredge both sides in flour. Put the scaloppini on waxed paper, and leave it to set at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes. Melt another 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large sauté pan. Add the scaloppini, and cook until browned on both sides -- 2 to 3 minutes per side -- adding another 1 or 2 tablespoons of butter, if necessary. Remove the scaloppini from the pan, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and set aside to keep warm. Sprinkle about 1 1/2 tablespoons of flour in the sauté pan, stirring up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Stir in the chicken broth, and bring to a boil. Add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Return the scaloppini to the pan, turning to coat on both sides with the sauce. Cover and continue to cook until the scaloppini and mushrooms are cooked through. To serve, place the scaloppini and mushrooms on a platter and surround with the sauce. Squeeze the juice of 1 of the oranges over the scaloppini. Cut the second orange into quarters or slices, and set around the platter to garnish. Serve hot.
