Creamy Mushroom Veal Schnitzel

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Mushroom Veal Schnitzel.

1. Step 1

   Start by placing the veal escalopes in a 9-inch square dish and generously pour fresh lemon juice over them.

2. Step 2

   Let the veal soak up the zesty flavor by marinating for about 30 minutes, giving it a gentle baste with the juice every now and then.

3. Step 3

   Once the time is up, carefully lift the veal from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels to ensure a nice sear later on.

4. Step 4

   While you’re at it, preheat your oven to a cozy 200°F (95°C) to keep the veal warm once it’s cooked.

5. Step 5

   In a mixing bowl, combine flour, a teaspoon of salt, a teaspoon of pepper, and a sprinkle of paprika.

6. Step 6

   Dredge each piece of veal in this flavorful mixture, making sure every inch is coated for that perfect crunch.

7. Step 7

   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt some butter until it’s bubbling.

8. Step 8

   Add the coated veal to the skillet and fry for about 2 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown.

9. Step 9

   Once they’re looking delicious, pour in a splash of Riesling and let it cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

10. Step 10

    Using tongs, carefully transfer the veal to an oven-safe platter and pop it into the preheated oven to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.

11. Step 11

    In the same skillet, toss in sliced mushrooms and chopped chives, seasoning them with the remaining salt, pepper, and a hint of nutmeg.

12. Step 12

    Stir everything together and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and fragrant.

13. Step 13

    Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in heavy cream, mixing until the sauce takes on a lovely light brown color without any white streaks.

14. Step 14

    Finally, take the veal out of the oven and generously pour the creamy mushroom sauce over the top, creating a dish that’s not only comforting but also bursting with flavor.
