Veal Cacciatore is a traditional Italian dish that features tender pieces of veal cooked in a rich tomato sauce. The name "cacciatore" means "hunter" in Italian, suggesting that this dish was originally made by hunters using available ingredients. It typically includes vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms, along with herbs such as oregano and basil. The dish is often served with pasta or polenta, allowing the flavorful sauce to be enjoyed alongside the meat. Cacciatore can also be made with other proteins, such as chicken or rabbit, but veal is favored for its delicate flavor and tenderness.
