Vitelone Cutlet

Season the vitelone cutlets with salt and pepper to taste, and preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C)

In a skillet, fry the bacon over high heat, stirring constantly for 5 minutes or until it starts to brown

Transfer it to a plate

Remove excess fat from the skillet (reserve), leaving only about 1 tablespoon

Mix the garlic and bacon in a bowl, then add the reserved fat, breadcrumbs, olive oil, thyme, pepper, and salt

Place the meat on a baking sheet and spread the seasoning evenly, pressing it onto the meat to ensure it adheres well

Drizzle with a little olive oil and bake for 1 hour or until the veal is cooked through and the crust is golden brown

Remove from the oven

Let it rest for 15 minutes before serving
