Serves 4

 
-
4 fillets of veal around 150g each
 
-
4 slices of bacon, chopped up
  - 2,5 dl of Benedictine
  - 2,5 dl chicken stock
  - 2 tablespoons of thick cream
  - grated lemon zest
 

Cut the fillets of veal into slices about 2 cm thick.

 

Place them with the bacon in a heavy saucepan and brown the two sides on a medium to high heat. Remove the excess fat. Add the Benedictine and the lemon zest.

  Cover and leave to simmer for 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock and cook over a low heat for 7 minutes so that the sauce is reduced.
  Take the meat out of the pan and keep warm.
  Add the cream to the sauce. Cook over a low heat until the sauce becomes slightly thicker. Serve the veal medallions covered with the sauce.
