Veal Paprikas
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 12 thin slices veal from the leg (scaloppine)
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup chicken stock, preferably homemade (page 160)
- 3 tablespoons corn, grapeseed, or other neutral oil
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon hot paprika, plus a sprinkling for garnish
- Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish, optional
- Lightly sprinkle salt, pepper, and the lemon juice over the veal; let sit while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Whisk together the sour cream and stock.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Dip a piece of the veal into the flour and slide into the skillet; repeat until the skillet is full but not crowded.
- Fry until nicely browned on both sides, just a minute or two on each, adjusting the heat so that the meat browns quickly and nicely but does not burn; remove each piece from the skillet as it finishes cooking.
- When all the meat is cooked, saute the onion in the same skillet until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the paprika over the onion and return the meat to the pan.
- When the meat is warm again, pour in the sour creamstock mixture and heat through, being careful not to let the sauce boil.
- Sprinkle with a little paprika, garnish with parsley if you like, and serve.
- In step 3, add 1 tablespoon minced garlic along with the onion.
- In step 3, add 2 tablespoons drained capers along with the sour creamstock mixture.
