Servings: persons

4 large veal chops, boned
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup breadcrumbs (plain or Italian)
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon powdered thyme
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons olive oil
4 lemon wedges
4 parsley sprigs

1
Pound veal with a meat pounder until very thin, being careful not to tear the meat. If you don't have veal, you can also use pork or chicken cutlets. I have used all 3 at one time or another and they are all delicious.
2
Beat the eggs with lemon juice. Set aside.
3
Combine bread crumbs, cheese, and seasonings. Dip the veal in egg mixture and then in the bread crumb mixture, coating evenly.
4
Place the meat on a cookie sheet in single layer and refrigerate, covered with wax paper, for at least 1 hour to help keep coating intact when cooking.
5
Saute veal until lightly browned on both sides, 7-10 minutes in all, in butter or olive oil.
6
Serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges and parsley.
