Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

12 (3- to 4-ounce) veal scallops
7 tablespoons butter, room temperature, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 cup all purpose flour
2 large eggs
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Working in batches and using meat mallet, pound veal scallops between sheets of plastic wrap into thin ovals, each about 3 to 4 inches wide. Sprinkle both sides of scallops lightly with salt. Mix 4 tablespoons butter and parsley in small bowl. Spread 1 teaspoon butter mixture evenly over 1 side of each veal scallop. Starting at short sides, roll up veal, enclosing butter mixture. Fasten ends of veal scallops with toothpicks to secure.

    Step 2

    Spread flour on plate. Whisk eggs, garlic, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, cinnamon, pepper, cloves, and nutmeg in medium bowl to blend. Dredge veal scallops in flour; shake off excess.

    Step 3

    Melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter with oil in heavy large skillet over medium-low heat until butter foams but is not brown, about 3 minutes. Turn veal rolls in egg mixture to coat well and add to skillet. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until rolls are browned on all sides and cooked through, turning frequently, about 10 minutes. Transfer to work surface; remove toothpicks. Cut rolls crosswise into slices. Divide veal roulades among plates and serve.
