Recipe type: Main Course

Cuisine: Italian

Serves: 6

Ingredients

2 pounds boneless veal round, (about 9-10 small pieces)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 Tablespoons flour
3/4 teaspoons dried oregano
3 Tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 large onion, chopped
1 1/2 Cups beef broth
1/4 Cup fresh lemon juice
8 thin slices lemon
2 Tablespoons capers
1/4 Cup finely minced fresh parsley

Instructions

Rub the veal pieces with the salt, pepper, flour, and oregano. Heat the oil over moderate-low heat in a 12-inch skillet.
Add the garlic and onion and saute for 3-5 minutes or until soft but not browned. With a slotted spoon remove the onion and garlic and set aside.
Raise the heat to medium-high and brown the veal slices on both sides.
Return the onion and garlic to the pan and add the broth. Bring to a boil, cover, then turn to simmer for 10-15 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and coat the veal slices evenly with the juice.
Arrange on a heated serving platter and garnish with the lemon slices, capers, and parsley.
A nice accompaniment is Gnocchi a la Romaine.
