Directions
1.
Bring a large stockpot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, in a large saute pan heat a 3-count of olive oil (about 3 tablespoons) over medium heat. Season flour with salt and pepper; dredge cutlets in flour to coat. Beat eggs and water in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Dip cutlets in egg wash, then place in the hot saute pan. Cook veal about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove veal to a plate. Deglaze pan with wine, scraping up brown bits with a wooden spoon. Cook wine until reduced by half. Stir in lemon juice, capers, and the 1 tablespoon parsley. Gradually add the cold butter cubes whisking to thicken the sauce. Season to taste.
3.
