Veal Parmigiana, also known as Veal Parmesan, is a classic Italian-American dish that has become a staple in many restaurants and homes. This delectable dish consists of tender veal cutlets, breaded and fried to golden perfection, then smothered in rich marinara sauce and topped with a generous amount of melted mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. The origins of Veal Parmigiana can be traced back to Southern Italy, where it was traditionally made with eggplant instead of veal. However, Italian immigrants in the United States adapted the recipe, using veal as the main ingredient. Today, this dish can be found on menus across the country, with notable variations from renowned chefs and restaurants. For the best Veal Parmigiana experience, seek out establishments that use high-quality veal and a flavorful marinara sauce. The key to achieving the perfect Veal Parmigiana lies in the balance of crispy breading, tender veal, savory sauce, and gooey melted cheese. Some chefs also add a sprinkle of fresh basil or parsley for a burst of freshness. Whether enjoyed as a comforting family meal or a special dining experience, Veal Parmigiana with extra cheese is a true crowd-pleaser.
