Ultimate Veal Parmigiana created by threeovens

I had never fixed veal, for some reason I always thought it was difficult, but this recipe proved me wrong. It's fairly simple, and delicious. I don't remember where I got this one from, but I think I've had it for awhile. I know I've made it, and since I kept it, it must have been good.

Simply delicious! Made as written except that I seasoned the veal with salt and pepper before dipping in the egg. Thanks for posting.
