Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the veal filet and then dunk both sides of each filet into the flour.
Add the oil to a skillet and heat over medium. Place 1-2 filets in the skillet and cook on each side until the meat is browned. Remove the filets from the skillet and place on a plate. You’ll need to do this in batches. Each side should cook about 3-5 minutes.

Raise the heat to medium-high and cook until the sauce comes to a boil. Turn off heat.
Arrange the veal on a serving platter. Pour the sauce over the slices and garnish with parsley.
