Preparation

Ungraded Beef (also known as Veal) Chop Milanese
1. In a large bowl, mix the oil, orange juice, mustard and shallot until combined. Place the ungraded beef (also known as veal) chops in the marinade and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

2. Take ungraded beef (also known as veal) out of the marinate and lightly pat dry. Place the flour, eggs and seasoned breadcrumbs into 3 separate shallow bowls. Remove a ungraded beef (also known as veal) chop from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off. Dredge the ungraded beef (also known as veal) chop in the flour, shaking off excess. Then dip into the egg mixture and then cover with breadcrumbs. Repeat this with remaining chops.

3. Heat the remaining oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, fry the ungraded beef (also known as veal) until golden brown about 3 minutes on each side. Remove from pan onto paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
