SAUTEED VEAL MEDALLIONS WITH SAGE AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Season the veal with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes, until hot. Add the veal and brown well for 3 to 4 minutes on one side, then turn and brown the second side for another 3 to 4 minutes. When the veal is nicely browned on both sides, remove from the pan. In the same pan, saute the onions in the pan juices for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they are browned. Add the mushrooms to the onions and saute together until the mushrooms begin to wilt. Add the white wine and reduce until the wine evaporates. Add the veal stock, sage, and Prosciutto, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, return the veal to the pan and reheat for 1 minute to warm. Continue to cook the mushrooms and sage sauce for an additional 10 minutes. Add the butter to the finished sauce and whisk until it is incorporated. Serve the veal on individual plates with some of the sauce spooned over it.;

SMOTHERED SHRIMP IN CRAB-MEAT GRAVY

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven set over medium heat, melt butter with olive oil.

Reduce the heat to medium low, and continue to cook, stirring often, for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, until the mixture has turned a deep brown. Be careful not to burn it.

When the mixture begins to simmer, add tomato paste, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for approximately 15 minutes, stirring often. Add shrimp, cook 3 to 4 minutes, then gently fold in the crab meat and simmer an additional 2 to 3 minutes to heat through. Serve ladled over stone-ground grits.
