The recipe for Carne alla pizzaiola with onion

Let's clean the onion, slice it thinly and brown it in a pan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Once wilted, we add our veal slices, browning them well and then deglazing with white wine.

We add the tomato sauce, then adjust the salt and pepper seasoning with a few sprigs of oregano. We continue cooking for at least 10 minutes so that the meat absorbs all the odors well.

We serve the meat pizzaiola with onion piping hot, perhaps accompanying it with a few slices of homemade bread, the scarpetta is a must ????. If there is any sauce left over, you can save it and employ it to season, for example, our outstanding maccheroncini.
