Ingredients

• 4 pieces Veal cutlets (scaloppine)
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cups Dry Marsala wine
• 0.5 cups Chicken or veal stock
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
• 1 cups Long-grain white rice
• 2 cups Water or chicken stock
• 1 cup Frozen green peas
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Place each veal cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound gently with a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese.

Step 3

Dredge each veal cutlet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Add the veal cutlets to the skillet in batches and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Sauté the mushrooms for 4-5 minutes, or until softened.

Step 7

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 8

Deglaze the pan with the Marsala wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

Step 9

Add the chicken or veal stock and simmer for 5 minutes, reducing the sauce slightly.

Step 10

Return the veal cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Cook for another 5 minutes to heat through.

Step 11

While the veal cooks, prepare the rice. In a medium saucepan, bring the water or chicken stock to a boil.

Step 12

Add the rice and reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.

Step 13

In the last 5 minutes of rice cooking, stir in the frozen peas and cook until tender.

Step 14

Fluff the rice and peas with a fork before serving.

Step 15

Plate the veal scaloppine, spooning the Marsala sauce and mushrooms over the top. Serve with the rice and peas on the side, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
