Prepare the Veal:
- Begin by pounding the veal steak on each side to tenderize it. Slice through any membranes on the outside of the steak and cut it into serving-size pieces.
-
Layer in the Crock Pot:
- Spread half of the chunky salsa evenly across the bottom of the crock pot.
-
Add Onions and Mushrooms:
- Slice the onions and portabella mushrooms and add them to the crock pot. Season with your preferred spices.
-
Place the Veal:
- Arrange the prepared veal pieces on top of the onions and mushrooms in the crock pot.
-
Add Liquid:
- Pour the water over the veal.
-
Top with Remaining Salsa:
- Drizzle the remaining chunky salsa over the veal in the crock pot.
-
Cooking:
- Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on high for 3 hours, or on low for 6 hours.
-
Check and Adjust:
- If cooking on high, it’s advisable to check the veal after about 2 1/2 hours. If it’s tender and cooked to your liking, you can switch the setting to low to keep it warm until serving.
