Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds veal cutlets, pounded thin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Season the veal cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides. Use a meat mallet to pound the cutlets to about 1/4 inch thickness if not already thin.
- Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the veal cutlets and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are browned and have released their moisture.
- Pour in the white wine to deglaze the pan. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes until the wine reduces slightly.
- Add the chicken broth to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for another 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow the sauce to thicken, which should take about 5 more minutes.
- Return the veal cutlets to the skillet, and spoon some of the mushroom sauce over the top. Cook over low heat for an additional 5 minutes to reheat the veal and allow the flavors to meld.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
