seasoning
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Dredge meat well with
flour and brown in hot oil on all sides; reserve
excess flour. Place meat in a large Dutch oven
with vegetables. Sprinkle with bread crumbs. Pour
broth and wine over all. Add seasonings. Cover
and bake for 3 hours or until meat is tender.
Remove meat and vegetables from pan and place
pan over burner on low heat. Add water to

to hot drippings, adding just enough to thicken,
stirring constantly. Remove from heat and serve
