Ingredients for Beth S Veal Vermouth With Mushrooms

  • Veal Cutlets
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • Garlic Clove
  • Mushroom
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Dry Vermouth
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

How to Make Beth S Veal Vermouth With Mushrooms

  1. Flatten veal cutlets to 1/4 inch thickness.
  2. Cut into 2-inch squares and dredge in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour.
  3. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté veal pieces in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan, until golden brown on both sides. Set aside.
  4. Add 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Return all the veal to the skillet. Arrange 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms over the top.
  6. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Squeeze 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice over the veal and mushrooms.
  7. Pour 1/2 cup dry vermouth over the veal and mushrooms.
  8. Cover the skillet and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until the veal is fork-tender, adding more vermouth if needed to maintain moisture.
  9. Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
