PAINTER'S VEAL



Painter's Veal image

Aptly named, because of the color added by the Burgundy, the mushrooms, chives, parsley, and paprika! Also the 30 minute bake time gives a painter time to clean his brushes so he can eat! To cut down on clean-up, wipe the skillet used for browning the veal with paper towels to remove the pan drippings, and use the same skillet to saute the vegetables. The herbs listed are fresh, so if using dried herbs, reduce the amount by half.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 veal cutlets, 4-oz each
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil
paprika, to taste
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
2 medium onions, cut into 1/4 inch slices
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups beef broth
1/2 cup Burgundy wine
3 tablespoons chives, chopped
3 tablespoons chervil or 3 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Place veal between 2 sheets of wax paper; flatten to 1/4 inch thickness, using a meat mallet or rolling pin. (My veal is usually thin enough from my butcher, so I can skip this step.) Cut veal into 1-inch pieces. Dredge the veal in the flour.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the veal in the oil; drain well. Place in a lightly greased 11x7x1 1/2 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with paprika. Set aside.
  • Wipe out the skillet, then add the 3 tbsp butter and melt. Saute the mushrooms and onion in the butter over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the vegetables are tender. Add the beef broth and remaining ingredients. Stir well. Bring to a boil; cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Pour the mushroom mixture over the reserved veal. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

HUNTERS SCHNITZEL

This recipe was originally made with Veal, but for those who don't like Veal, you can use Pork Cutlets instead. This recipe is my Step Grandmother's recipe that her mother taught her how to make as a young girl. I like this with the Veal, not big on Pork. Hope you like it.

I know you'll find other recipes for this dish, but you owe it to yourself to try this GREAT recipe. IT'S THE GREATEST! It's also easy & very authentic!

Provided by Alan Leonetti

Categories     Veal

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (6 ounce) veal cutlets
wax paper
1/2 cup flour
salt & pepper
1 egg (beaten)
extra virgin olive oil (a drizzle)
1 cup cracker meal or 1 cup crushed corn flakes
butter (for frying)
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 lemon (cut into 4 wedges)

Steps:

  • Cover work surface with a sheet of waxed paper.
  • Arrange cutlets with a few inches between them on paper.
  • Over the cutlets, top with a second sheet of waxed paper.
  • Pound cutlets out to 1/4-inch thickness using the bottom of a small heavy skillet or a rubber mallet.
  • If they are already 1/4 inch, then you don't have to pound them.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Set veal aside and set up 3 disposable pie tins or wide bowls and a plate in a row.
  • Place flour in 1 tin and season with salt and pepper.
  • In the 2nd tin place the beaten egg with a drizzle of oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • In the 3rd tin pour out about 1 cup of cracker meal or crushed corn flakes.
  • I use crushed corn flakes that are sold in a box in the supermarket already crushed.
  • Dredge the veal completely in flour.
  • Then coat the veal evenly with egg on both sides.
  • Gently press veal into the cracker meal or crushed corn flakes and rest the coated cutlets on the plate.
  • Add a drizzle of oil and 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet.
  • When the butter foams, add veal and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown all over.
  • Remove to a warm plate and sprinkle a little nutmeg over the hot schnitzels.
  • Garnish with the lemon wedges, as the lemon wedges are to be squeezed over the schnitzels before eating.

Tips:

  • To ensure the veal is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the veal by cutting into it. The meat should be slightly pink in the center for medium-rare or no longer pink for medium.
  • For a more flavorful dish, marinate the veal in the white wine, garlic, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have white wine, you can use chicken broth or water instead.
  • Serve the veal with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Painter's veal is a classic French dish that is sure to impress your dinner guests. The combination of tender veal, flavorful sauce, and crispy breadcrumbs is simply irresistible. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a special meal to prepare, give painter's veal a try. You won't be disappointed!
