I have been making this recipe for years. It is very easy to make, and the sauce is to die for! I have used chicken in place of the veal on many occasions. Just pound the chicken until fairly thin.

VEAL SCALOPPINE IN MARINARA SAUCE
This is from an old cookbook entitled "Pineapple Gold", written by Joann Hulett Dobbins. I've used it so often over the last 20-plus years that it's falling apart and now has to be kept in a big ziplock bag instead of on the shelf. :) The recipe is very adaptable to personal tastes. Add mushrooms to the sauce, increase the garlic, replace some of the water with wine, throw in some red pepper flakes if you like highly-seasoned foods, etc., etc. The sauce ingredients have been doubled because we like a lot and also enjoy the leftovers on other things. You can cut it in half if you prefer. I serve it with fettucini, a Caesar salad and hot French bread. This takes a little time, but it's easy and real good.

Steps:
- To prepare sauce, heat 1 tablespoon each of olive oil and butter in large skillet on 'medium' setting.
- Add onion, bell pepper and garlic; sweat until vegetables are tender.
- Add tomato paste, water, thyme, basil, sugar and crushed bay leaves; stir until tomato paste is incorporated and mixture is smooth.
- (Note: When using fresh herbs instead of dried, I approximately triple the amount of basil and double the thyme -- but you can tell better by taste than exact measurements. Replacing 1/2 cup of the water with wine is also an excellent option. And I *always* throw in the hot pepper flakes!).
- Taste mixture, adding salt and pepper as needed. (For inexperienced cooks, I would suggest starting with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and going -- slowly -- from there until it tastes just right.).
- Continue cooking over medium heat, allowing mixture to slowly reach a boil; at that point, reduce heat several notches and simmer gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, season veal scallops on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Measure flour and breadcrumbs into separate bowls.
- (Note: A scant measure of flour will be enough. Breadcrumbs can be fresh or commercial. Recipe calls for 'plain', but the Italian-seasoned kind work fine also.).
- Break egg into third bowl, beating well with a whisk.
- In a second skillet or large pot, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter on 'medium' setting.
- Dredge scallopini in flour, coating lightly but thoroughly on both sides; dip in beaten egg to coat; cover all over with breadcrumbs.
- Brown thoroughly in hot oil (depending on how brown you want them, it will take about 2-4 minutes per side); drain on paper towels.
- Add browned scallopini to marinara sauce, turning to coat if necessary; continue simmering slowly until meat is thoroughly done and very tender (10-15 minutes).

Tips:
- To ensure the veal scaloppine is tender, use a meat mallet to pound the veal cutlets until they are ¼-inch thick. This will help break down the fibers and make the meat more tender.
- Use a good quality olive oil for the best flavor. Extra virgin olive oil is a great choice.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the veal scaloppine. This will prevent the meat from cooking evenly.
- Cook the veal scaloppine over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the meat and create a nice crust.
- Don't overcook the veal scaloppine. Overcooked veal is tough and chewy. Cook the meat until it is just cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Add the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes, or until they are softened. You can also add other vegetables to this dish, such as mushrooms, zucchini, or bell peppers.
- Season the dish with salt, pepper, and oregano to taste.
- Serve the veal scaloppine immediately with pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
Conclusion:
Veal scaloppine with tomatoes is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The tender veal, flavorful tomatoes, and simple seasoning come together to create a delicious and satisfying meal. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
