Method

  1. 1

    Season the plain flour and dust the veal escalopes lightly on both sides, shaking off the excess.

  2. 2

    Melt half the butter in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry the escalopes for 2 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through, then transfer to warm plates.

  3. 3

    Wipe out the pan and melt the remaining butter, swirling until it turns a light golden brown.

  4. 4

    Take off the heat and squeeze in the lemon juice, then stir in the parsley.

  5. 5

    Spoon the lemon butter over the veal and serve immediately.
