VEAL SCALLOPS WITH LEMON AND CAPERS



Veal Scallops with Lemon and Capers image

Categories     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Lemon     Veal     White Wine     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
four 3-ounce veal scallops, each about 1/8 inch thick
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
three 1/4-inch lemon slices, halved
1 teaspoon drained bottled capers
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • In a shallow dish stir together the flour and the salt and in the flour mixture dredge the veal, 1 piece at a time, shaking off the excess. In a large non-stick skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sauté the veal for 1 minute, or until it is pale golden. Turn the veal and sauté it for 30 seconds more, or until it is pale golden and just springy to the touch. Transfer the veal to a platter and keep it warm, covered. Add to the skillet the wine, the lemon, and the capers and simmer the mixture for 1 minute. Swirl in the butter and the parsley and pour the sauce over the veal.

Tips:

  • To ensure the veal scallops remain tender, use a meat mallet to pound them until they are thin, about ¼ inch thick. This will help them to cook evenly and quickly.
  • For the best flavor, use fresh herbs and lemon juice. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Be careful not to overcook the veal scallops. They should be cooked just until they are no longer pink in the center. Overcooked veal scallops will be tough and dry.
  • Serve the veal scallops immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for veal scallops include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.

Conclusion:

Veal scallops are a delicious and versatile dish that can be prepared in a variety of ways. With its delicate flavor and tender texture, veal scallops are a great choice for a special occasion meal or a weeknight dinner.
