This classic veal marsala recipe is similar to the veal pesada at a popular Florida restaurant. I've spent extensive time eating my way through Italy and modified this recipe from a restaurant in Bagnione, Italy. I've substituted a combination of low-salt beef and chicken broth in place of veal stock; pounded pork medallions are also commonly substituted.
Ingredients
- 1 pound veal medallions
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil , divided
- 1 pound fresh mushrooms , sliced
- 1 large shallot , minced
- 1 cup dry Marsala
- 1 clove garlic , minced
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
-
2
Lightly dredge veal medallions in flour; season with salt and black pepper. Place coated medallions, unstacked, on a plate; set aside.
-
3
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add medallions; cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into centers reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 5 minutes. Transfer medallions to a baking dish; cover with aluminum foil and keep warm in the preheated oven until ready to serve.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Add mushrooms and shallot; cook, scraping up any browned bits, until shallot is tender. Increase heat to medium-high; stir in Marsala and garlic. Cook and stir until thickened.

Stir in chicken broth and beef broth; cook and stir until reduced to about 1/4 cup.

Off heat, whisk in butter until melted and emulsified; serve over veal medallions.

Lentil Cakes (Patties)
This recipe for lentil cakes (patties) is wonderful. They've undergone several transformations since I first tried them, using different soup mixes for seasoning and adding chopped nuts for texture. Serve them with tomato sauce or bake them in a mushroom sauce for a fancy dinner. My favorite way to enjoy them is on a burger bun or good homemade bread like a hamburger, with lettuce, tomato, cheese, mayo, ketchup, and alfalfa sprouts!
