Why This Recipe Is A Must Try

This dish offers a perfect balance of crispy texture and tender meat. It’s lighter than fried versions but still delivers that satisfying crunch. Plus, it’s quick to prepare and feels special enough for any meal.

Helpful Tips For Cooking

- Pound the veal thinly for even cooking and extra tenderness.
- Use panko breadcrumbs for a crispier coating.
- Let the breaded veal rest for a few minutes before baking to help the crust stick better.

Step 1

Warm your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, lemon juice, and milk. Then, set up a little breading station: put the flour in one shallow bowl, and in another, mix the Italian crumbs, pecorino Romano cheese, and adobo seasoning.

Step 2

Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Take each veal cutlet and give it a good coating—first dredge it in the flour, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally press it into the breadcrumb mix so it’s nicely covered on both sides. Cook the veal in the hot oil for about a minute on each side until the coating is golden and set, then transfer the cutlets to a baking dish.

Step 3

Pop the dish into the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the veal is cooked through and juices run clear. When ready, place the cutlets on plates, pile some fresh arugula on top, and scatter a few raisins over the greens. Finish each plate with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and a little olive oil for a perfect touch.

How To Serve It Best

Serve with a fresh lemon wedge to add brightness. A simple arugula salad with a light vinaigrette or roasted vegetables pairs well. For a comforting touch, creamy mashed potatoes make a great side.

How To Store Leftovers

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven to keep the crust crispy. Avoid microwaving as it can make the coating soggy.
