I happened to use up some steak we had from our steer instead of veal, but it still came out delish. This is really easy to prep ahead of time and then pan fry and make the sauce for dinner. I just served it with some mashed potatoes to make a nice hardy meat and potato meal. If anything I may thicken the sauce just slightly next time as it was a little thin.
