Classic Veal Parmigiana
Classic Veal Parmigian From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes roughly 45 minutes. If you have eggs, butter, mozzarella cheese, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it.

Place cutlets between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and flatten to 1/4-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
