Steps:

• Stir the first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl to blend. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the oil. Season mixture with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Lay the flank steak flat on the work surface. Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the steak to cover the top evenly. Starting at 1 short end, roll up the steak as for a jelly roll to enclose the filling completely. Using butcher's twine, tie the steak roll to secure. Sprinkle the braciole with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the braciole and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Add the wine to the pan and bring to a boil. Stir in the marinara sauce. Cover partially with foil and bake until the meat is almost tender, turning the braciole and basting with the sauce every 30 minutes. After 1 hour, uncover and continue baking until the meat is tender, about 30 minutes longer. The total cooking time should be about 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the braciole from the sauce. Using a large sharp knife, cut the braciole crosswise and diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Transfer the slices to plates. Spoon the sauce over and serve.
• In a large casserole pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add celery and carrot and season with salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, basil, and bay leaves and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour or until thick. Remove bay leaves and taste for seasoning. If sauce tastes too acidic, add unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, to round out the flavor.
• Pour half the tomato sauce into the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. Continue with remaining tomato sauce.
• If not using all the sauce, allow it to cool completely and then pour 1 to 2 cup portions into plastic freezer bags. Freeze for up to 6 months.

BRAISED BRACIOLE

Steps:

• Prepare the bread stuffing by soaking the bread in milk for 5 minutes. Squeeze out the excess milk with your hands then put the bread in a clean mixing bowl. Add parsley, cheese, garlic, copacola, pine nuts, and raisins. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil to moisten and mix thoroughly.
• Set the veal on a piece of plastic wrap. Make a deep slice along the veal breast and fan open like a book. Lay another piece of plastic wrap on top. Using the smooth side of a mallet, gently flatten the veal until it's about 1/2-inch thick; take care not to tear. Discard the top sheet of plastic wrap; rub the surface with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread the stuffing evenly over the meat, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Place the eggs lengthwise down the center of the meat and roll up like a jellyroll log, using the plastic wrap as support. Tie the roll with kitchen string to secure.
• Heat olive oil over medium heat in a Dutch oven or roasting pan. Brown the stuffed veal roast well on all sides. Cover with foil and bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven for 1 hour.

BRACIOLE BITES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Arrange the beef in a single layer on a large platter. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt, then drizzle with ¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil. Turn the pieces of beef over and sprinkle with another ½ teaspoon salt and another ¼ cup olive oil. Let sit while you prepare the bread crumb mixture.
• Add the bread crumbs, remaining ½ teaspoon salt, the parsley, Parmesan cheese, pepper, and garlic powder to a large, shallow bowl and mix together. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and mix until the bread crumbs are lightly coated, but not greasy.
• Working with one piece at a time, lift the beef and let the excess olive oil drip off. Place in the bread crumb mixture and press into the crumbs to coat both sides. Set the beef down in the crumbs and place a piece of provolone cheese on. Starting from a short side, roll tightly. Thread the beef roll onto a 12-inch metal skewer, and repeat with the rest of the beef, 6-7 rolls per skewer.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil on a large flat-top pan or griddle over high heat. Working in batches, place the skewers in the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, until the braciole are browned and cooked through. Add more olive oil between batches, if needed.
• Serve immediately garnished with more parsley.
• Enjoy!
