Serves: 4Prep: 15 minCook: 15 min

Ingredients

  • 1 lb veal scallops, pounded thin
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2/3 cup Marsala wine
  • 2 cups cremini or porcini mushrooms, cubed
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves, picked
  • 2 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Pound the veal scallops thin, then dredge them in the flour seasoned with salt and pepper, shaking off excess, for 2 minutes.
  2. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until foaming, then brown the veal on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
  3. Transfer the veal to a plate and set aside while you add the garlic and mushrooms to the skillet.
  4. Sauté the mushrooms and garlic over medium heat until tender and lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Return the veal and any juices to the pan, then pour in the Marsala wine and simmer over medium-low heat until the sauce begins to thicken, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Adjust the sauce with 1-2 tablespoons water if needed, then spoon it over the veal and serve hot with thyme and mushrooms.
  7. Garnish with picked thyme and serve immediately, with toasted bread if desired.
