Easy Veal Parmesan

Most veal parm recipe take about 45 minutes to an hour but, Easy Veal Parmesan can be prepped, cooked, and plated in 15 minutes flat. How can you pass up an easy recipe like that? It’s the perfect solution to those busy weeknights when dinner is the last thing on your mind.
Many veal dishes require you to start by pounding the veal. You may realize that some slices may already be thin and want to skip this step, as long as the veal is of even thickness there is no need to pound. The only thing that happens when you don’t pound veal, is it shrinks in the pan more. No big deal! Remember to get the pan hot before beginning, and don’t overcook those cutlets!  If you need more ideas and cooking inspiration try making this amazing garlic bread recipe by Christina from It is a Keeper Blog.
