Mushroom Veal Marsala

http://www.italianfoodforever.com/

In this tasty recipe, tender veal scallops are topped with a light mushroom marsala wine sauce. Since veal scallopini can be quite expensive, you could substitute either chicken or turkey cutlets, just use a meat mallet to pound them to equal thickness.

Serves 4.
