    salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

    2 -4 tablespoons olive oil
    1 large shallot, finely chopped
    2 -4 garlic cloves, smashed, depending on how much garlic you like
    2 cups mushrooms, sliced, I use lg. button mushrooms
    1/2 cup sweet marsala wine
    3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
    1 fresh rosemary leaf
Preparation
    Sprinkle the veal with salt and pepper.
    Melt 2 T. of butter, and 2 T. of oil in a lg. heavy skillet, over med-high heat.
    Add 4 veal cutlets, and cook until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Do not overcook, or they will get tough!
    Transfer the veal to a plate.
    Add another tablespoon of butter and oil, if necessary.
    Repeat with the remaining 4 cutlets.
    Set the cutlets aside.
    Add 1 T. of oil to the skillet.
    Add the shallot and garlic.
    Saute until fragrant, about 30 secs.
    Add 1 T. of the olive oil, if necessary.
    Add the mushrooms, and saute until tender and the juices evaporate, about 3 minutes.
    Season with salt.
    Add the Marsala.
    Simmer until the Marsala reduces by 1/2, about 2 minutes.
    Add the broth, and the rosemary leaves.
    Simmer until reduced by 1/2, about 4 minutes.
    Return the veal to the skillet.
    Pour in all of the pan juices.
    Cook just until heated through, turning to coat, about 1 minute.
    Stir the remaining 1 T. of butter into the sauce.
    Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.
    Put on a serving dish, and spoon sauce over the veal.
    Serve.
    To slightly thicken the Marsala Sauce: 2 T. cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup water, optional.
    If desired, slightly thicken the sauce with the corn starch and water mixture.
