Veal Parmesan, also known as Veal Parmigiana, is a classic Italian-American dish that has its roots in Southern Italy. This delectable dish consists of tender veal cutlets, breaded and fried to golden perfection, then smothered in rich marinara sauce and melted mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. The dish is believed to have originated in the Campania region of Italy, where it was traditionally made with eggplant instead of veal. Over time, Italian immigrants brought their culinary traditions to the United States, where it became a staple in Italian-American restaurants. Today, the best versions of Veal Parmesan can be found in authentic Italian eateries in New York City, where renowned chefs put their own spin on this beloved comfort food. The key to a perfect Veal Parmesan lies in the quality of the veal, the richness of the marinara sauce, and the gooey, melted cheese topping. For a twist on the traditional recipe, some chefs use a combination of different cheeses or add a sprinkle of fresh basil for a burst of flavor. Whether enjoyed in a cozy Italian trattoria or homemade in your own kitchen, Veal Parmesan is a timeless favorite that continues to delight food lovers around the world.
