Ingredients
Instructions
- Dredge veal in flour.
- Saute veal in olive oil until browned on both sides.
- Add sliced mushrooms and chopped shallots and cook until wilted.
- Add Madeira sauce, water, tomato paste, and sauce mix; mix well.
- Simmer the mixture for 10 minutes.

Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding a splash of balsamic vinegar or a pinch of smoked paprika to the sauce. If you don't have Madeira, a dry white wine can work as a substitute. For a gluten-free option, use cornstarch instead of flour to dredge the veal. Fresh herbs like parsley can also enhance the dish's freshness.
Serving Suggestions
Serve Veal Chassuer over a bed of creamy mashed potatoes or alongside sautéed green beans for a complete meal. A light salad with a citrus vinaigrette can complement the richness of the dish. This recipe pairs beautifully with Shrimp And Asparagus Appetizer for a delightful surf-and-turf experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm on the stovetop over low heat, adding a splash of water or broth to maintain moisture. Avoid microwaving, as it can toughen the veal.
