Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Halve each of the six strips of veal crosswise.

  2. Step 2

    Dredge the breast sections in flour seasoned with salt and pepper.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Step 5

    Remove the excess fat if necessary. Remove the bay leaf. Serve with buttered noodles, rice or mashed potatoes.
