I made this with veal. I really enjoyed the balsamic sauce even though mine split at the end of the cooking process. I think next time I will make this with Pork Tenderloin or Chicken, you could use the sauce over grilled meats too. Thanks for sharing.

    We did not expect to love this dish the way we do. The flavor is amazing. I chose to taste the sauce before adding the vinegar and like it but ounce I added the vinegar I love it. Did I also tell you how easy this recipe was to make during the week, which is a good thing. Looking forward to making this recipe again. Thank for posting this recipe for us all to try.

    Fabulous!!! This will become one of my staples. The sauce is a perfect balance of flavors. I added some grated parmesan to the breadcrumbs and they were perfect!

    This had the most amazing flavor! The balsamic vinegar had a powerful flavor. My family told me this was the best meal I had ever cooked! For side dishes I made Five (Or More!) Ingredient Garlic Quinoa (Recipe # 121064) and Roasted Cauliflower (from my own cookbook). Thanks again for the great recipe PanNan!
