This classic veal dish may seem quite rich, but it actually doesn't contain an excessive amount of fat, since young veal is lean and the cream and butter are kept to a minimum. Served with noodles or rice, it makes a wonderful quick supper.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb  (500 g)  white veal scaloppine
  • 2 tbsp  (30 mL)  all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup  (75 mL)  minced shallots
  • 3 tbsp  (45 mL)  lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup  (60 mL)  whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup  (60 mL)  chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt, pepper and butter

Preparation

Cut veal into ¾-inch (2 cm) wide strips. In bowl, mix flour with ½ tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper. Toss veal with flour mixture to coat evenly. In large nonstick skillet, melt 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter over medium heat; add shallots and fry until softened, about 2 minutes. Increase heat to high; add veal and sauté until light golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to plate.

Add lemon juice to skillet, stirring until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add cream; bring to boil; return veal to pan along with any juices. Cook until sauce is thickened, about 1 minute. Stir in parsley.
