Copycat Air Force One Veal or Chicken Piccata image

This recipe had been sitting in my recipe box for several years waiting for me to give it a try and I am so glad I finally got around to tasting it. The magazine clipping claims that this is a recipe used by the chef on the US President's official plane, Air Force One. This is so very juicy and so scrumptious.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs veal cutlets or 1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded very thin
3 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest, finely grated
2 tablespoons sweet unsalted butter, to taste
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1 lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • Whisk together eggs and milk in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Mix bread crumbs and lemon zest together in a shallow bowl.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt some butter in it (as much or as little as you prefer- use less if using a nonstick skillet).
  • While butter is melting, dip veal pieces into egg mixture, then coat with crumbs mixture.
  • Pan fry in melted butter until cooked through, just a few minutes per side (time will vary based on how thinly you have pounded your cutlets)- until cooked through and no longer pink inside, but still juicy.
  • Season with salt& pepper to taste.
  • Sprinkle with a bit of fresh lemon juice to taste and serve immediately.
