Recipe by Paul Mayville

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 pounds veal scaloppini
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1 medium shallot, sliced thin
  • 1/4 cup marsala wine
  • 1 cup veal stock (or 1/2 cup chicken stock and 1/2 cup beef stock)
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter

Directions

Place veal between sheets of plastic wrap and pound thinly with a mallet or bottom of sauce pan.

In a shallow dish, combine flour and seasonings. Dredge veal in flour mixture, and set aside. In a large pan on medium heat, saute mushrooms in 1/4 cup butter. When butter clears and mushrooms are browned set aside and keep warm.

In the same pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter and add olive oil. Add veal, garlic, and shallots, and saute until veal is lightly browned on both sides. Set aside with mushrooms and keep warm.

Deglaze pan with Marsala wine. Add stock and reduce sauce to one-half. Whisk in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until all butter has been added; strain.

Plate veal topped with mushrooms and sauce.
