Philly Cheesesteak Veal Wraps

Ingredients

  • 1 Quebec Veal blade roast of 1 kg (about 2 1/4 lb)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 45 mL (3 tbsp) canola oil
  • 500 mL (2 cups) beef broth
  • 30 mL (2 tbsp) Worcestershire sauce
  • 15 mL (1 tbsp) chopped garlic
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 container 227 g white mushrooms, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
  • 4 medium tortillas
  • 4 slices provolone cheese

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Season veal blade roast with salt and pepper.
  3. In an ovenproof skillet, heat 15 mL (1 tbsp.) of oil over medium heat. Sear chuck roast for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
  4. Add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce and garlic to pan. Place onion around the edge of the meat.
  5. Cover and bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, turning the meat halfway through cooking, until the meat flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Remove from oven and place roast on a plate. Flake meat with two forks.
  7. Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in another pan over medium-high heat. Cook mushrooms for 4 to 5 minutes, until water has completely evaporated and mushrooms are golden.
  8. Add bell pepper and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes.
  9. Top tortillas with shredded meat and vegetables. Cover with provolone cheese. Roll up tortillas, tightening as you go.

 

Marja's Tip: serve leftover veal with rice or noodles in a Thermos for lunches, or as sandwiches.

Note: the roast will also be excellent cooked in a slow cooker for 8 hours on low heat.
