🥘 Ingredients

14 items

• 1 piece Veal brisket (about 5 pounds, butterflied)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Onion (finely chopped)
• 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary (chopped)
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups Chicken broth
• 0.5 cup White wine
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 roll Kitchen twine

📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

2. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.

3. In a large bowl, combine the sautéed onion and garlic with breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, rosemary, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix well to form the stuffing. If the mixture feels too dry, add a few drops of olive oil or a splash of chicken broth.

4. Lay the butterflied veal brisket flat on a clean surface. Spread the stuffing evenly over the meat, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

5. Carefully roll the brisket, starting from the shortest side, into a tight log, enclosing the stuffing. Use kitchen twine to tie the brisket securely at 2-inch intervals, ensuring the stuffing stays inside.

6. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter in a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the veal brisket on all sides until golden brown, about 8 minutes total.

7. Remove the brisket from the skillet and set aside. Deglaze the skillet by adding white wine, scraping the browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine reduce by half, about 2 minutes.

8. Add the chicken broth to the skillet and stir. Place the seared veal brisket back into the skillet, ensuring it is partially submerged in the liquid. Cover and transfer to the preheated oven.

9. Bake for 2.5 to 3 hours, basting the brisket with the pan juices every 30 minutes. The meat should be tender, and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part should read 160°F (71°C).

10. Once cooked, remove the brisket from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes. Remove the kitchen twine and slice the brisket into 1-inch thick slices.

11. Serve the stuffed veal brisket with the pan juices spooned over the top. Enjoy!
