Classic Italian Veal Spezzatino
Veal spezzatino features veal chunks stewed with vegetables until tender and flavorful. This Italian dish is less soupy than stews from other cuisines. Even though there are potatoes in the recipe, it is typically served alongside polenta or mashed potatoes. Leftover stew freezes beautifully.
