Loved this! This dish isn't easy to find in my local Italian restaurants so I looked online for a recipe I could prepare at home. Have never found one as good as this one. Pre-prep is a little time consuming with all the chopping, etc., but it's worth the small effort and is delicious. Now I can make it whenever the mood strikes.

Please people use extra virgin olive oil.

No thank you - the EVOO is too strong. For salad/marinating, yes. For sauteing, I'll stay with the light olive oil.

My dad who was Italian used to make veal and peppers and they were awesome. However my husband and I forgot how to make them.
I searched and found this recipe which seemed to be the closest to how his was. Fixed it and it was fantastic. We added some dried hot peppers (that's what my dad used to do) but this is just like his.
Absolutely love it! Thank you!
