How to Make Apricot Veal Rolls On Mushroom Rice
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Sauté 4 slices of bacon, diced, and 1 medium onion, chopped, in a medium pan until the onion is tender and translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
- Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of the bacon and onion mixture onto each of 4 thin veal cutlets (about 4 oz each).
- Roll up the veal cutlets tightly and secure with a toothpick.
- Lightly dust the veal rolls in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
- Brown the veal rolls all over in 2 tablespoons of hot oil in a large skillet (about 2-3 minutes per side).
- Transfer the browned veal rolls to an ovenproof dish.
- In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup apricot nectar, 1 packet of onion soup mix, and 1/4 cup of your favorite brown sauce. Pour this mixture over the veal rolls in the ovenproof dish.
- Bake, uncovered, for 60-75 minutes, or until the veal is cooked through and tender.
- While the veal is baking, sauté 8 oz of sliced mushrooms in 1 tablespoon of oil until tender (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in 2 cups of cooked rice into the sautéed mushrooms. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the apricot veal rolls over the mushroom rice. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
