Lite and Fabulous Steak PizzaiolaThis Italian classic is simply steak topped with a quick cooking, zesty, pizza-like sauce. Sometimes it’s topped with cheese. I’m using very lean top sirloin but if you’d prefer to use flank steak or skirt steak, just reduce the cooking time a bit.

Chocolate Sauce for Roman OxtailA tomato sauce base is enriched with poached celery and finished with dark chocolate, raisins and pine nuts and a hint of nutmeg. This silky sauce is a subtly bitter sweet finish for Roman Oxtail Stew, its crowning glory. Though I have never tried it, I imagine it could also work well with game dishes. |
