Veal, Chilled W.Tuna Sauce - Vitello Tonnato - Atkins Recipe










Ingredients:

2 lb veal loin, tied for roasting
1 can italian tuna packed in oil, drained
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp capers
2 canned anchovies, patted dry
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

Veal with tuna sauce may sound like a crazy combination, but its a classic
dish from Northern Italy and very easy to make at home. Tuna sauce is also
delicious over cold roast chicken or turkey.

1. Heat oven to 400° F. Season veal roast with salt and freshly ground
black pepper. Roast 40 minutes, until medium (130° internal temperature).
Chill the veal.

2. In the bowl of a food processor puree tuna, mayonnaise, capers,
anchovies and lemon juice until smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
Adjust consistency with water until sauce pours like a thick salad
dressing. Transfer to a bowl; fold in mayonnaise.

3. Remove strings from veal; thinly slice. Spread some tuna sauce on a
platter, top with a layer of veal, repeat layering, ending with a layer of
sauce. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours for flavors to blend.
