From the venerable Ristorante Villa Francesca in Boston's North End; this was in the Boston Herald's recipe request column in the 90's. I haven't tried it yet, but it looked too good not to share.

I liked this a lot and so did my older son. I think I will need to tenderize the veal next time because some pieces were tough. My younger son didn't really try it once he found it was so tough. For the chopped tomatoes, I used a 14 oz. can of diced tomatoes and added the liquid with it. To reduce it, I added some cornstarch to speed things up. I loved the smell of the garlic while this was cooking!Reply
