For good results, have the veal sliced very thin, i.e. less than 3 mm. If possible, choose «milk-fed veal» which is much younger and more tender than the grain-fed one.
Keep the serving plates in the oven at the lowest setting so they are warm when you serve.

Our scaloppines were a bit too thick and some pieces ended up being less tender than expected (even if the cooking instructions/time were followed thoroughly). Very thin scaloppines is a must. We doubled the broth to have some sauce left, but it all evaporated... We were hoping to have some sauce to serve with it. Served with capers, it adds a nice touch.
really good, really simple and fast. I did the greek raosted vegetables as a side, and the lemon in this dish enhanced the vegetables.
