Scale
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup fresh bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 6 eggs
- 4 (3-oz.), 1/8"-thick veal cutlets
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 8 tbsp. unsalted butter
- 8 oil-packed anchovy filets (I strongly recommend Ortiz brand - they are the best!)
- 1 tbsp. finely chopped parsley
- 1 tbsp. thyme flowers from flowering thyme sprigs
- 1 1/2 tsp. finely chopped capers
- 1 tsp. whole capers
- A good splash of white wine
- Juice of 1/2 lemon + extra if needed
Instructions
- Place flour and crumbs on separate plates, and whisk milk and 2 eggs in a bowl. Season cutlets with salt and pepper. Coat cutlets in flour, then egg mixture, then dredge in crumbs.
- Heat 2 tbsp. butter in a 12″ skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 cutlets and cook, turning, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate; repeat with 2 tbsp. butter and remaining cutlets. Reserve skillet, do not wash.
- Bring new skillet to heat. Add 2 tbsp. butter; crack remaining eggs into skillet; cook until whites are just firm, about 2-3 minutes. Place an egg on each cutlet; crisscross 2 anchovies over each. Keep warm in a low oven.
- Return Veal skillet to heat and deglaze pan with white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Add remaining butter; cook, swirling, until brown and nutty, about 30 seconds. Stir in parsley, capers, and lemon juice; taste – if it needs more lemon juice, add it (it should be quite sharp tasting).
- Pour sauce over cutlets. Sprinkle thyme flowers over all and serve immediately.
