Baked Veal Shanks Stinco Di Vitella Forno
Hot italian dish cookbook by victoria gotti. This is one of my favorite dishes to order when dining out. I am so glad that i can now make it at home. I serve this with roasted potatoes and mixed fresh steamed vegetables.
Steps
Preheat oven to 450f.
Chop the bay leaves , sage and rosemary , rub the herbs into and outside the shank.
Season the outside of the shank with salt and pepper and lay the veal shank in a shallow bowl filled with the flour.
Press both sides of the shank gently into the flour to coat and shake off any excess flour.
Put the oil in a roasting pan then add the white wine , veal shank , carrot , onion and celery.
Bake the shank for 10 minutes.
Lower the temperature to 425f , cover the veal shank with aluminum foil and cook for an additional 1 1 / 2 hours , basting the shanks with the chicken stock often.
Remove the shank from the pan and cut the meat into 1-inch-thick slices.
Add butter to vegetable drippings in the pan and use as a gravy over the shank slices.
