Pat the veal schnitzels dry and rub them with salt and black pepper.
Coat the meat in flour and shake off the excess.
Heat the olive oil and half of the butter in a pan and cook the meat for 2 minutes per side.
Transfer the meat to a plate, then add the lemon juice, meat stock, and capers to the pan.
Boil the sauce for 5 minutes, until lightly thickened.
Add the remaining butter to the sauce and whisk, then return the meat to the pan.
Warm the veal piccata in the sauce for 2 minutes and serve with parsley.
💡 Tip: Ask the butcher to pound the meat for schnitzel; if it stays thick at home, it turns into a long-cooked pan steak rather than piccata.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve veal piccata with its lemon sauce, plus optional arugula salad or plain pasta.
