Ingredients
1 7-pound breast of veal (have the butcher cut across the breast to make six strips of equal width)
½ cup flour
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
¼ cup vegetable oil
½ cup chopped onions
1 tablespoon chopped celery
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup dry white wine
1 bay leaf
4 sprigs fresh thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried
3 cups chicken stock
½ cup canned crushed tomatoes
Preparation
- Step 1
Halve each of the six strips of veal crosswise.
- Step 2
Dredge the breast sections in flour seasoned with salt and pepper.
- Step 3
Heat the oil in a large cast iron skillet over a medium flame. Add the veal pieces, turning often to brown all over. This should take about 10 minutes.
- Step 4
Drain the fat from the skillet and add the onions, celery, garlic and carrots. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the wine, bay leaf, thyme, chicken stock and tomatoes. Stir, bringing to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours, or until the meat is well cooked.
- Step 5
Remove the excess fat if necessary. Remove the bay leaf. Serve with buttered noodles, rice or mashed potatoes.
