   In the market for veal? Make sure it's lean, has a bright pink color, and has a fine grain. Veal should have a pale pink color when purchased. It needs to visibly have a fine grain texture. Veal is a very lean meat and should not have any noticeable marbling of fat. [1]

2. 2

   Depending on how thick they are, the cutlets can be pounded out. Don't like how thick your veal is? Cut it into thinner slices. Making schnitzel, a very thin version of veal scallops, requires flattening the veal with a meat hammer to the desired thickness. Use a wooden cutting board for the best results.

2. 2

   Lose the extra weight Curling can occur when frying veal if there is excess fat around the edges. Use a sharp, small knife to remove any excess fat from your cutlets before frying them in batter. Hold each piece in place with one hand while you trace carefully around the edges. [3]

3. 3

   Flour the veal and pan fry it. Coat the veal in all-purpose flour to start the breading process. Then, completely coat them in raw egg by dipping them in a bowl. After coating with flour and eggs, transfer the cutlets to a bowl of breadcrumbs. The breadcrumbs will adhere readily to the cutlets. [4]

4. 4

   Toss the cutlets in a sauté pan. Set a saute pan over medium heat and add a small pat of butter or 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of oil. Set the chops in the pan. Prepare them for 2 to 3 minutes in a hot oven, turning once. [5]

   • If your cutlets are particularly thick, you may need to increase the cooking time. If you're not sure whether or not they're done, use a meat thermometer.

5. 5

   Prepare the veal with either vegetables or pasta. Serve breaded veal scallops with roasted potatoes, carrots, zucchini, and red peppers for a filling meal. They pair well with spaghetti or any other type of pasta for a hearty meal. Garlic cream sauce or tomato sauce is a great way to amp up the flavor of your breaded veal scallops.

   Get the veal ready. You can season your veal chop however you like. Rub the meat with a little bit of oil and as much salt and pepper as you like to keep things simple. Chopped garlic, steak spice, and other seasonings can be used as alternatives. [6]

2. 2

   Get the grill or barbecue ready. Veal should not be cooked on a cold grill or barbecue. Start your gas grill and allow it to preheat for about ten minutes before you begin cooking. Let a charcoal grill heat up for about 20 minutes after you light it with a charcoal chimney. [7]

3. 3

   Barbecue or grill the meat. Grill your veal with barbecue tongs. If you want to flip a piece, give it a few inches of space. Keep a meat thermometer handy to check on the veal's progress throughout cooking. [8]

4. 4

   After 12-14 minutes, flip the veal and continue cooking. In order to avoid sticking, turn the veal over with the barbecue tongs every few minutes. As a bonus, this will promote uniform cooking. Generally, 12 to 14 minutes on the grill will produce a medium-done interior temperature for veal chops and burgers. It's important to use a digital meat thermometer to ensure the veal is cooked through before serving. [9]

   • The ideal internal temperature for veal is 155 degrees Fahrenheit (68 degrees Celsius).
