Ingredients

2 large yellow bell peppers, roasted
1 (3-ounce) package cream cheese with chives, at room temperature
1 (5.3-ounce) package basil and roasted garlic goat cheese, or 6 ounces soft fresh
herb-flavored goat cheese, at room temperature
1 bunch arugula, stems trimmed
16 large fresh basil leaves
1(3-pound) boneless veal loin
House Seasoning, recipe follows
14 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained
8 bacon slices
2 tablespoons butter

Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Directions

Char the peppers over a gas flame or in the
broiler, turning until blackened on all sides. Place peppers in a paper bag for 10 minutes
to loosen the skins. Peel, seed, and stem the peppers. Cut lengthwise into strips. Set
aside.

Stir the cream cheese and goat cheese in a small bowl until blended. Set aside.

Plunge the arugula and basil into hot water with tongs. Remove immediately, drain, and
place into a bowl of ice water to blanch and shock.

Slice the veal open like a book and cover with plastic wrap. With a meat pounder or
rolling pin gently pound the veal to approximately a 10 by 12-inch rectangle of even
thickness. Season with House Seasoning, as desired.

Overlap the arugula leaves down the center of the veal forming a 2-inch wide strip. Cover

with half of the pepper strips, skinned side up. Arrange the sun-dried tomatoes in 2 rows
on top of the peppers.

Set aside 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture for the sauce. Spoon the remaining cheese mixture
in an even log over the tomatoes. Arrange the remaining pepper strips, skinned side up,
over the cheese. Arrange the basil leaves over the peppers.

Fold 1 long side of the veal over the filling. Roll up the veal jelly roll style and
secure by tying with string. Wrap the string lengthwise around the veal to secure ends.
Cover the ends of the veal with aluminum foil to enclose the filling completely. Cover the
veal and the reserved cheese separately and chill for at least 6 hours. Can be prepared 1
day ahead.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Melt the butter and olive oil in a heavy large shallow roasting pan over medium-high heat.

Season the veal with salt and pepper. Brown the veal on all sides, turning frequently,
about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from heat. Drape the bacon over the veal and tuck in the
ends.

Place the veal in the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the
meat (not the filling) registers 140 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Transfer to a work
surface and let stand for 15 minutes.
