BeginnerIt has been so long since my last posting. Wonderful events happened in our lives, the most important one was our son first communion. Family was in town for the occasion and that was wonderful. The dust has finally settled and back in my kitchen with a bit of creativity.
Last night we wanted something very simple for dinner, and veal piccata was the choice. Few ingredients, which are a staple in my kitchen. Thin spaghetti alongside with steamed broccolis, my son request. Dinner was quiet and relaxing.
The veal can be replaced with chicken breast or thighs, boneless and skinless of course.
Bon Appetit!!
