Veal Breast Stuffed W.Spinach & Mushrooms - Atkins Recipe




Ingredients:

1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup shallots, finely chopped
2 lb mushrooms &1, sliced
1 1/2 lb baby spinach, rinsed, dried
1 sheet matzo
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp salt, divided
1 tsp pepper, divided
7 lb veal breast &2

Instructions:

&1: (a mixture of white, shiitake, crimini and/or portobello)

&2: trimmed and slit horizontally to form a pocket for stuffing

The spinach and mushroom filling can be made a day ahead. To save time, ask
your butcher to cut a pocket in the veal and trim most of the fat (but not
all-fat keeps the meat moist).

1. Heat oven to 350º F. Heat 2 tbs olive oil over high heat. Add pecans;
cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute. Add shallots; cook 4
minutes, stirring occasionally until softened. Add half the mushrooms; cook
5 minutes stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated.
Transfer mixture to a large bowl.

2. Heat remaining 2 tbs oil over high heat. Add remaining mushrooms, 1 tsp
salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Cook 5 minutes. Add one-third of the spinach at a
time, adding a new batch as it wilts. Drain, reserving liquid. Add mushroom
mixture to bowl.

3. Run the matzo under warm water to soften. Crumble into bowl; mix well.

4. Sprinkle meat, including pocket with remaining 1 tbs salt and 1/2 tsp
pepper. Place veal in a roasting pan. Fill cavity with about 2 cups of
stuffing. Close pocket and secure with skewers. Place remaining stuffing in
9-inch baking pan, cover with foil; set aside. Put reserved cooking liquid
in the roasting pan. Cover tightly with foil. Cook 2 1/2 hours until
almost fork-tender.

5. Remove foil, increase heat to 450º F. Place pan of stuffing in oven.
Cook veal until browned on top, and fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Cool 15
minutes before slicing. If desired, reduce the cooking liquid by half, skim
off fat and serve as gravy.
