Veal Heart Venetian-style is a main course from the rural Venetian tradition. A very easy and economical recipe — not everyone likes offal and innards, but the heart has a milder flavor and a texture very similar to classic cutlets. The recipe is very similar to Venetian-style liver but in this case the heart is used. I recommend also checking other recipes from the Venetian tradition — you will surely find more ideas to try.

Pour 4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil into a frying pan, add the onion and sauté until lightly golden for a few minutes. Add the slices of heart and a pat of butter (about 1 teaspoon), cook for 10 minutes, turning the veal heart a couple of times to ensure even cooking on both sides.
When the Veal Heart Venetian-style is cooked, serve it hot together with the cooked onion.
