Fried Veal Chops (Plain)

The veal chops can be breaded up to 4 hours ahead and refrigerated uncovered on a wire rack, which actually improves crust adhesion. The pan gravy is best made fresh, but if necessary, it can be prepared 1 hour ahead and kept warm over low heat, whisking occasionally to prevent separation.

Store leftover fried veal chops in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven on a wire rack for 10-12 minutes to restore some crispness; avoid microwaving as it will make the coating soggy. Store gravy separately in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheat gently on the stovetop, adding milk to thin if needed.
