What You Need
Instructions
Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain.
Sprinkle veal with half each of the salt and pepper. In large non-stick skillet, melt half of butter over medium-high heat. Brown veal strips in batches. Transfer to bowl. Add remaining butter to skillet; sauté garlic, mushrooms, onion, and remaining salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 8 min or until starting to brown. Add red peppers and cook, stirring, for 2 min. Stir in vinegar and cook until evaporated.
Stir in whipping cream; increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and boil gently, stirring occasionally, for about 5 min or until sauce is reduced and thickened. Stir in veal and accumulated juices. Cook, stirring, just until heated through. Toss with pasta and basil. Serve sprinkled with Canadian Parmesan cheese.
Tips
Veal is very tender and lean and needs little cooking. Be sure to remove from pan as soon as veal is browned and just heat through in sauce to prevent toughening. It is best eaten while still a little pink inside.
For the Adventurous:
Replace half of mushrooms with sliced cremini or shiitake mushrooms; replace vinegar with 2 tbsp (30 mL) dry sherry.
