Scaloppine

Scaloppine (plural and diminutive of scaloppa—a small escalope, i.e., a thinly sliced cut of meat) is a type of Italian dish that consists of thinly sliced meat, most often beef, veal, or chicken, that is dredged in wheat flour and sautéed in a reduction sauce, which varies by region. Popular sauces include tomato-wine reduction; scaloppine al limone or piccata, which denotes a caper-and-lemon sauce; scaloppine ai funghi, a mushroom-wine reduction; and pizzaiola, a pizza-style tomato sauce. Veal scaloppine served with tomato sauce, prosciutto, and mozzarella has been popular in Italian-American cuisine since World War II, where a heavier version is made than in Campania. It is speculated that the dish was created in a luxury resort hotel in Sorrento, which had better access to tender veal than home cooks. The term scaloppa derives from the French escalope.
