In other countries it is sometimes called schnitzel and can be made with chicken breast, turkey breast or pork loin. All are fine substitutions but veal has a mild flavour, tender texture and remains juicy. Children and adults love this dish. In Milano it is made with veal cutlet which can either have the bone or not and be left 3 cm thick or thinly pounded. In Italy it is most classically paired with risotto alla milanese, roast or fried potatoes or salad.
