Categories     dinner, one pot, sauces and gravies, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 ounce dried mushrooms, shiitakes, porcinis or a combination
1 2- to 3-pound boneless veal breast
1/2 cup white wine
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter, optional

Steps:

  • Reconstitute the mushrooms by covering them with very hot water. Strain through a fine sieve to remove any grit. Strain the liquid, and reserve.
  • Turn heat under a 12-inch skillet to medium-high, and let it sit for a minute. Add veal, and brown on both sides, turning once, for a total of about 6 minutes.
  • Remove meat to a plate, and turn heat to medium. Add the mushrooms and about 1/2 cup of their liquid to the skillet, along with wine. Bring to a boil, and cook about 30 seconds, then return veal to skillet. Season with salt and pepper, turn heat to low, and cover.
  • Cook 60 to 90 minutes, turning once or twice and checking occasionally to make sure the liquid is bubbling slowly; adjust heat accordingly.
  • When meat is tender, remove it to a cutting board. Turn heat under skillet to high, and reduce liquid to a thick, sauce-like consistency. Stir in butter if desired, and keep warm. Carve meat against the grain into slices 1/4 inch thick, and serve with pan juices.

This dish is a bit too rich for my taste. The veal was fatty and the sauce was heavy. I think I'll skip this one next time.

Not bad, but not great either. The veal was a bit tough and the sauce lacked flavor. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

Delicious and easy to make. I used cremini mushrooms instead of button mushrooms and they worked perfectly. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and the veal was fall-apart tender. Served it over egg noodles and it was a hit!
