Scallopini is an Italian dish of thinly sliced and pounded cutlets of meat or poultry, such as pork, veal or chicken, dredged in flour, sautéed in butter, and often served with a pan sauce. You’ve probably enjoyed scallopini at your favorite French restaurant, but Chef Instructor Bridget Charters wants to show you how worthwhile it is to make this beloved Italian dish at home.  Why learn to make your own scallopini? For one reason, since the meat is thin, it cooks quickly for a super fast dinner.  Also, scallopini is delicious, elegant enough for company, and compatible with lovely flavors like lemon, wine, capers, sage, and prosciutto.
