Veal Milanese with an Orange Twist



Yet again, I cannot leave a classic recipe alone. Well actually this was due to the fact that last minute I noticed I did not have any lemons and home, so decided to use oranges instead.

INGREDIENTS
8 thinly sliced veal scallopine
1 orange
salt & pepper to taste

1.5 cups of thin bread crumbs
1/2 cup of grated Parmesan
1 tsp of thyme
2 tsp of Penzeys Fox Point Seasoning
2 eggs
salt & pepper to taste
1 cup of olive oil

DIRECTIONS
  1. Marinate the veal slices with salt, pepper and the juice of a whole orange
  2. In a bowl beat the eggs slightly and add a little salt & pepper
  3. Combine the bread crumbs, seasonings and Parmesan and spread it on a plate
  4. in a skillet add the olive oil and bring it to hot
  5. Pass each veal scallopine through the eggs then the bread crumb mixture and place it in the skillet once the oil is nice and hot
  6. Repeat for all veal scallopines
  7. Serve with a nice aromatic rice and an arugula salad
SUGGESTIONS
It is not easy to find thin bread crumbs, so an idea it to use your coffee grinder to make your crumbs as thin as possible. The reason I prefer this way is that it is not as heavy and the fried food does not hold as much oil.
