Watched him make this on a show today. YUM. Need this here to be able to add to my cookbook and grocery list. Prep time is approx. Ingredients:

1 tablespoon salt |
1 1/4 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper |
2 cups italian seasoned breadcrumbs |
10 ounces pancetta (reserve 2 tablespoons of the rendered fat) or 10 ounces bacon, cooked until lightly browned but not crisp, finely diced (reserve 2 tablespoons of the rendered fat) |
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese |
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil |
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
3 tablespoons garlic |
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary, plus |
2 fresh rosemary sprigs |
2 teaspoons emeril's original essence |

1 large onion, coarsely chopped |
2 medium carrots, coarsely chopped |
1 cup white wine |
1 cup chicken stock |
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika |
2 tablespoons salt |
2 tablespoons garlic powder |
1 tablespoon black pepper |
1 tablespoon onion powder |
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper |
1 tablespoon dried oregano |
1 tablespoon dried thyme |
Directions:
1. Emeril's seasoning:.
2. Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
3. Lightly pound or butterfly the breast of veal until it measures roughly 15 by 13 inches.
4. Season on both sides with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper.
5. In a mixing bowl, combine the bread crumbs, pancetta, Parmesan, olive oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, garlic, minced rosemary, Essence, and lemon zest and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
6. Spread the bread crumb mixture evenly over the pounded portion of the veal to within 1-inch from all edges. Carefully roll the meat lengthwise and tie every 1 1/2 inches with kitchen twine.
7. (Roast can be assembled to this point up to 8 hours or overnight ahead of time, and then brought back to room temperature before proceeding). Reserve any bread crumb mixture that falls out of the ends of the roast as you are tying it.
8. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
9. In a large Dutch oven over medium high heat, heat the reserved rendered fat and, when very hot, brown the roast on all sides, turning occasionally, about 12 to 15 minutes.
10. Remove the veal from the pan and add the onions and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly caramelized, about 4 minutes.
11. Add the white wine, chicken stock, remaining 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, rosemary sprigs, remaining teaspoon of salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and return the veal to the pan.
12. Add any reserved bread crumb mixture. When the liquid comes to a boil, cover the Dutch oven and transfer to the oven.
13. Cook, turning occasionally, for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the veal is very tender.
14. Remove from the oven and transfer the roast to a platter.
15. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and let stand for 15 to 30 minutes before removing the kitchen twine and slicing into 1/2-inch thick slices.
16. Serve with the braising liquid.
