thanks for the recipe 13 !!!!! this looks really good. my wife and i make a version of this with thin chicken breasts.

also, you could add a thin slice of breaded eggplant between the prosciutto and the veal, and you have one of my favorite dishes called veal sorrentino.

All of Bakersdozen's recipes look great. Keep 'em coming. Buckytom, do you fry the breaded eggplant before you add it to the dish?

[buckytom]

yes lyndalou. the eggplant is very lightly breaded and fried, then placed atop floured and browned veal scallopini, then slices of prosciutto, mozzarella, and it is baked in the brownish tomato sauce.

Thanks, buckytom. I'm gooing to make this for sure.

[buckytom]

when basil is in season, put a coupla leaves in the layers as well. hmmm, never added the lemon juice before, gonna have to try that.
this is a dish that is relatively simple but looks great and impresses people because it looks complicated.
and like i said, these recipes work equally as well with chicken "scallopini", or really thin pounded out breasts. the cool thing about chicken is you can make huge slices, so you can make layers and then roll them for a different effect.

Yum....your version sounds wonderful Buckytom...I will definately be trying it. Love eggplant and always looking for new ways to use it. Thanks!
