yeah this is what I"m not understanding. So your boss knows, told you...and now what? Is your boss going to reprimand the employee? Put out a statement saying under no circumstances should meetings be recorded without the consent of everyone in the meeting? This story sounds like it is missing a big chunk of information.

Yep. Grounds for dismissal.

Its only a crime if all parties didn't know/agree to it.
OP didn't specify.

it's pretty clear from the OP that the employee did this surreptitiously and without OP's knowledge. do you think OP would have gone through with the conversation if the employee, at the start, said "hey, FYI. i am taping this. okay, we can start now"?

Proof? Or word of mouth? You file a complaint and the employee will delete it on the phone. Nothing will then come of it.

What if you are wrong?

Does Linda Tripp work for you?

Nope, i was told the employee recorded me with her phone.

See below:
Twelve states currently require that all parties consent to the recording: California,[20] Connecticut,[21] Florida,[22] Hawaii (in general a one-party state, but requires two-party consent if the recording device is installed in a private place),[21] Illinois (debated, see next section), Maryland,[23] Massachusetts,[21] Montana[24] (requires notification only), Nevada,[21] New Hampshire,[25] Pennsylvania,[26] and Washington.[27] However, three of the above states that permission is given if any of the parties announces that they will be recording the call in a reasonable manner if the recording contains that announcement.

Previous discussions with my boss. She plays victim anytime she is asked to do something.

Hmm well how do you know that was the specific purpose?
