Steps:

• Place each veal round between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound to a 1/4-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or the bottom of a small, heavy pan. Transfer the veal to a baking sheet. Combine the oregano, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl, then rub over the veal. Cover in plastic and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

PORK SCALOPPINE WITH MUSHROOMS AND MARSALA

Steps:

• Trim the pork loin, leaving only a thin layer of fat, and cut it crosswise into twelve equal slices. Using a meat mallet (or other heavy implement), flatten and spread the slices into scaloppine about 1/4 inch thick. Season lightly on both sides with salt and freshly ground pepper. Dredge the scaloppine in the flour, coating both sides, and shake off the excess.
• Meanwhile, put 4 tablespoons of the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet, set over medium-high heat. When the butter begins to bubble, lay four or more scaloppine in the skillet-as many as can lie flat without crowding-and let them sizzle in place until the underside is opaque and tinged with brown, about 3 minutes. Flip them over and color the second side for a couple of minutes; then lift out the slices, let the fat drain off, and put them on a platter. Add a bit more olive oil and/or butter to the skillet if it seems dry, and fry the rest of the scaloppine in the same way.
• When all of the pork is browned, pour off the frying oil but leave any crusty caramelization in the skillet. Put in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 3 tablespoons of butter, and return to medium-high heat. When the butter is foaming, drop in the shallots and sage leaves, and cook, stirring, for a minute. Scatter the sliced mushrooms in the pan, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt, and stir continuously as the mushrooms sizzle and start to release their juices. Cook, tossing and stirring, until the moisture has evaporated and the mushroom slices are shrunken, soft, and caramelized, 6 minutes or more.
• Pour in the Marsala, raise the heat, and stir until it boils. Let the wine bubble and reduce for a minute or two, then stir in the stock. Bring to a boil, and cook at a gentle bubbling pace until the sauce is slightly viscous but loose, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
• One by one, slide the scaloppine into the simmering sauce, and pour in any juices accumulated on the platter. Shake the pan, spoon sauce over the scaloppine, and flip them over once or twice, until they are heated through and glistening with sauce on both sides. If the sauce is too dense to coat all the meat, loosen it with a bit of stock. Turn off the heat, sprinkle the parsley all over, and serve.

SCALOPPINE ALLA MARSALA

Steps:

• Place pork, chicken, turkey, or veal between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat pounder or the side of a cleaver, pound out to a thickness of 1/8-inch.
• Place flour in a shallow dish. Season with salt and pepper. Very lightly coat each scallop with flour, tapping off excess.
• In a large skillet, heat butter with oil until very hot but not smoking. Quickly brown scallops, 30 seconds to 1 minute per side. Transfer to a serving platter and keep warm.
• Add Marsala to pan along with orange juice for pork, lemon juice for chicken, turkey, or veal. Cook, scraping with a wooden spoon to loosen browned bits from bottom of pan. Add orange or lemon slices, and continue to cook until sauce thickens, about 4 minutes more. Garnish platter with orange or lemon slices. Pour sauce over meat and serve immediately, garnished with thyme.

• Lightly dredge pork in flour. Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl in oil and cook sage until just crisp, 1 minute. Remove from skillet. Swirl butter into skillet and cook pork in 2 batches until lightly browned around edges, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Return all pork to skillet. Pour in wine and simmer until reduced to a glaze, about 1 minute. Add radicchio and mushrooms, coat with sauce, and serve

VEAL SCALOPPINE MARSALA

Steps:

• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter with 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large, heavy skillet set over medium heat. Shake the flour onto a rimmed plate. Season the veal all over with the salt, and dredge lightly in the flour, tapping off the excess. Add the veal to the skillet, moving it around so it all fits, and cook until browned and caramelized on the edges, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove the veal to a plate.
• Increase the heat to medium-high, and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the sage leaves to the skillet. Once the sage is sizzling, add the mushrooms and shallots. Add about 2 tablespoons of the Marsala to get the mushrooms cooking. Cook and stir until the mushrooms have released their liquid and all the liquid has cooked away, about 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in the rest of the Marsala and the stock. Bring to a rapid simmer, and cook until the sauce has reduced by half, then whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in pieces.
• Return the veal to the sauce, and simmer until just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped parsley and serve.

VEAL MARSALA

Steps:

• Season the veal escalopes with a little salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a little olive oil in a heavy based pan. Quickly saute the veal on both sides (you may have to do this in batches if your pan isn't big enough) remove the meat and set aside to rest. Keep warm.
• Bring the same pan back up to temperature and add the butter. Add the shallots and mushrooms and saute for 2- 3 minutes until softened. Add the stock, season and add a splash of Marsala and allow to reduce.
• Chop the vegetables into 2cm pieces. Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in another large pan. Lightly fry the garlic then add the peppers, aubergine and thyme and fry over a high heat for 3-4 minutes. Add the courgette. Season with salt and pepper and saute for 2 minutes until the vegetables are just tender. Take off the heat and dress with the a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar; check the seasoning. Finally add the parsley and keep warm until ready to serve.
• To finish the Marsala sauce mix through the diced tomatoes, chervil and tarragon. Return the veal back to the pan and spoon the sauce over the top to heat it through.
• Spoon the sauted vegetables onto warm plates. Lay the escalopes on top of the vegetables and spoon over the Marsala sauce.
