Directions: |
Directions:Shake veal in a bag with the flour, salt, and pepper until coated. Heat olive oil in a skillet and saute veal on high on both sides til brown and firm---about two minutes per side (if you are making double or triple batches, just add olive oil as needed). Remove veal from pan and keep warm. Add butter, pine nuts, and garlic to pan and toss over medium heat until fragrant...about two minutes. Whisk in lemon juice and broth and bring to a simmer. Return veal to the pan just long enough to reheat, 2 or 3 minutes. Place veal on pan and pour pan juices over, garnish with parsley, and serve. |

Notes: This is a light version of this dish, and is very low in calories and fat. I usually double or triple the recipe. You can make slightly ahead of time if you keep in a warm oven til serving. I no longer really measure, and think I am more generous with the pine nuts, which I crush in a baggie, vs. chopping. Also, this is a great chicken dish too, if you use chicken breasts and pound them until they are thin enough for scallopini.
