Basil Lemon Veal

Basil Lemon Veal

What you need:
Veal Scallopini
1/2 Lemon
5 Basil Leafs
1/4 of a cup of white wine or beer
1 Tbsp of Capers
Olive Oil
Flour
Salt
Pepper

Drege both sides of the veal scallopini in the flour and set aside
Heat a saute pan and add 2 tbsp of olive oil
Brown each piece of veal and once browned remove from the pan and set aside

De-glaze the pan with either the wine or the beer or if you would prefer not to use alcohol, you can use lemonade or apple juice. Use a spatula to help the brown yummy bits lift from the bottom of the pan. Once the liquid comes to a boil squeeze in half of the lemon, the capers and chopped basil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

This will take you about 15 minutes. I like to serve it with steamed broccoli and some salad. Alternatively you can serve it with buttered pasta or rice.

Mmmmmm this is one of my favorites...bon appetite!
