Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350&# 194;°F (175°C).
  2. Place each veal cutlet between two sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; flatten to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
  3. Combine all-purpose flour and black pepper in a shallow bowl.
  4. Place the lightly beaten egg whites in a separate shallow dish.
  5. Combine Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in a third shallow dish.
  6. Dredge the veal cutlets in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  7. Dip each floured cutlet into the egg whites, then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture.
  8. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  9. Add the breaded veal cutlets to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute on each side or until lightly browned.
  10. Remove the skillet from heat.
  11. Spray an 11x7-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  12. Spread 1 cup of tomato sauce evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
  13. Arrange the browned cutlets in a single layer on top of the sauce.
  14. Spoon the remaining 1 cup of tomato sauce over the veal cutlets.
  15. Sprinkle the cutlets with shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese.
  16. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
