I do not like beef. Is there a meat I can exchange for the veal such as chicken or pork cutlets?

You can always switch out meats in our recipes, so yes, chicken or pork both sounds like great substitutes. Let us know how it goes!

I made this recipe with pork chops instead of veal. I ended up grilling the pork chops for about 5-7 minutes and then finished them off in the tomato sauce for 30mins. They turned out great!

This says Veal chops but directions list pork, FYI. Hopefully it is OK with Veal as I bought veal :)

Lz – So sorry about that! That was just a mistake in the recipe. I edited it so it says veal throughout. Thanks so much for letting me know!
