braciola

/brah-CHYOH-lah/
[Italian] plural braciole

This actually means "shoulder chop" but usually describes a dish made with thin slices of meat similar to beef olives and consists of a thin slice of meat, usually beef, wrapped around a stuffing of, for example, prosciutto, pine nuts and Parmesan cheese, with parsley. It may be cooked in tomato sauce or fried in oil. These are known as bracioloni in the north. It is also rib steak, chop, escalope.
