   Preheat the oven to 200ºF (93.3ºC).

   To bread the veal set up three separate large shallow bowls. Place the flour in the first bowl. In the second bowl beat the eggs. In the third bowl combine the breadcrumbs, parsley, oregano, basil, onion powder and garlic powder.

   Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan in a thin layer.

6. 6

   Working one veal chop at a time, dredge the veal on both sides in the flour mixture then the egg mixture. Gently press the veal chop into the breadcrumb mixture so that it is lightly coated on both sides.

Turn the veal chop and continue to cook until golden brown and cooked through, about an additional 3 minutes. Transfer the veal chop to a baking sheet and warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining veal chops.
