Tuscan Stuffed Veal with Chianti Sauce
Serving:2 Prep: 10 minutes — Cook: 15 minutes
 
Marinated Chicken Marinated Chicken
The romance of the Italian countryside inspired this dish as well as the opened bottle of Chianti in our test kitchen. You may substitute the veal with boneless chicken breasts. The dish is nice served with a side of green beans flavored with garlic.

 

INGREDIENTS

2 boneless veal cutlets (about 4 ounces each)
  White pepper
2 ounces Fontina cheese, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sliced, roasted red bell pepper
1/4 cup chopped black olives, extra sliced olives for garnish
6 sage leaves, freshly chopped, plus more for garnish
1 clove garlic, minced
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
2 tablespoons Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 cup Chianti or other full bodied dry red wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cold water
 



METHOD

Lightly pound the veal (or chicken) to 1/4 inch thick; season lightly with white pepper. Evenly divide the cheese between 2 pieces of veal. Do the same with the red peppers, sage, and the olives. Roll the veal up jelly-roll style, sealing the edges as best as possible. Lightly brush with the egg wash and coat with breadcrumbs.

In a medium skillet coated with DuPont SilverStone® non-stick, heat oil over medium high heat. Add the stuffed veal and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, browning on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Turn the heat down, cover and simmer for about 2 minutes to reduce slightly. Return the veal to the pan, cover, and cook in the wine for an additional 5 minutes or until the veal is cooked medium or well, according to desired doneness. Remove from the pan and add the cornstarch mixture, if needed, to thicken the sauce. Slice on the diagonal and serve immediately.
