Best 8 Scallopine Of Venison With Madeira Recipes

VENISON SCALLOPS WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Pull the grapefruit apart into segments. Using the tip of a small, sharp knife, loosen the white membrane surrounding each segment and pull it away, trying not to pierce any of the little juice pods. Break up the segments into juice pods and set them aside.
• Trim the venison of any tendons or cartilage and slice across the grain into 1/2 inch slices. Place each one between 2 layers of plastic wrap and flatten by pounding with the flat side of a mallet until just over 1/4 inch thick. Season generously with salt and pepper. Preheat an oven to the lowest heat and place a heat proof platter inside.
• In a large, heavy skillet heat the olive oil over high heat (you may need to do this in batches). Quickly sear the venison scallops for about 1 minute on each side, then reduce the heat and cook for 1 minute more, until done to your liking (if the venison is cooked beyond the medium rare stage, it will be tough.) Transfer the scallops to the platter in the oven and cover loosely with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Wipe the skillet clean and, over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter. Add the shallots and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the gin and simmer until the pan is almost dry. Add the juniper berries, venison or beef stock, salt, and cracked pepper. Increase the heat to high and simmer until the liquid has reduced by half. Add the remaining pieces of cold butter, remove the pan from the heat, and whisk until the sauce is emulsified. Taste for seasoning and stir in the grapefruit pieces. Place one or 2 venison scallops on each plate and spoon some of the sauce over the top. Serve at once.

SCALLOPINE OF VENISON WITH MADEIRA

Steps:

• Marinate the venison in three tablespoons of the Madeira for at least one hour. During this time, soak the raisins in the remaining Madeira.
• A few minutes before serving, drain the venison and dry the slices on a paper towel. Drain the raisins, reserving the Madeira in which they had been soaking.
• Heat two tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet. Quickly saute the venison over high heat until lightly browned and remove to a warm platter. Lower heat, add the shallots and saute until they turn translucent. Stir in the raisins. Add the reserved Madeira and return the venison to the pan. Baste with the sauce.
• Remove the venison to individual plates. Whisk the remaining butter into the pan juices bit by bit to thicken the sauce. Do not allow the sauce to come to a boil. Pour the sauce over the venison, season it lightly with salt and pepper and serve.

VEAL SCALOPPINE WITH MUSHROOM MARSALA SAUCE

Steps:

• Place each veal round between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound to a 1/4-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or the bottom of a small, heavy pan. Transfer the veal to a baking sheet. Combine the oregano, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl, then rub over the veal. Cover in plastic and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Remove the veal from the refrigerator and dredge in flour to coat both sides. Shake to remove excess flour, then set the veal aside on a plate or tray.
• In a large skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat until melted and bubbling. Working in batches, fry the veal until golden and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the onions to the pan and cook until the onions are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, Marsala, capers, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and saute until soft and golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth and cook until the sauce is reduced by half and thickened.
• Transfer the cooked veal to a serving plate and pour the sauce all over it. Top with the parsley and serve.

SCALOPPINE AL MARSALA

Steps:

• Place veal between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a solid, level surface; pound to 1/4-inch thickness with the smooth side of a meat mallet. Pat dry with a paper towel and dust with flour on both sides.
• Melt butter with olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it starts to foam. Add veal; cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Season with salt. Transfer veal to a plate. Cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• Pour Marsala wine into the same skillet. Stir to scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, about 2 minutes.
• Stir water and cornstarch together in a small bowl until cornstarch dissolves. Stir into the Marsala wine in the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Return veal to the skillet; cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and serve topped with sauce.

VENISON TENDERLOIN WITH MADEIRA GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Pat venison dry and sprinkle with black pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat oil in an ovenproof 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until just smoking, then brown venison on all sides (except ends), about 3 minutes total.
• Transfer skillet with venison to oven and roast until thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into center registers 115°F, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer venison with tongs to a plate and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes (temperature will rise to 125°F for medium-rare).
• While meat stands, add shallot to skillet (handle will be hot) and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add Madeira and deglaze skillet by boiling, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until liquid is reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add demi-glace and boil, stirring, until sauce is slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Stir in peppercorns, butter, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and any meat juices that have accumulated on plate, then remove from heat.
• Cut venison into 1/2-inch-thick slices and serve with sauce.

VEAL SCALOPPINE IN MARINARA SAUCE

Steps:

• To prepare sauce, heat 1 tablespoon each of olive oil and butter in large skillet on 'medium' setting.
• Add onion, bell pepper and garlic; sweat until vegetables are tender.
• Add tomato paste, water, thyme, basil, sugar and crushed bay leaves; stir until tomato paste is incorporated and mixture is smooth.
• (Note: When using fresh herbs instead of dried, I approximately triple the amount of basil and double the thyme -- but you can tell better by taste than exact measurements. Replacing 1/2 cup of the water with wine is also an excellent option. And I *always* throw in the hot pepper flakes!).
• Taste mixture, adding salt and pepper as needed. (For inexperienced cooks, I would suggest starting with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and going -- slowly -- from there until it tastes just right.).
• Continue cooking over medium heat, allowing mixture to slowly reach a boil; at that point, reduce heat several notches and simmer gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, season veal scallops on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Measure flour and breadcrumbs into separate bowls.
• (Note: A scant measure of flour will be enough. Breadcrumbs can be fresh or commercial. Recipe calls for 'plain', but the Italian-seasoned kind work fine also.).
• Break egg into third bowl, beating well with a whisk.
• In a second skillet or large pot, heat 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter on 'medium' setting.
• Dredge scallopini in flour, coating lightly but thoroughly on both sides; dip in beaten egg to coat; cover all over with breadcrumbs.
• Brown thoroughly in hot oil (depending on how brown you want them, it will take about 2-4 minutes per side); drain on paper towels.
• Add browned scallopini to marinara sauce, turning to coat if necessary; continue simmering slowly until meat is thoroughly done and very tender (10-15 minutes).

CHICKEN SCALLOPINI

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the garlic and butter until well combined. Set aside. Place a chicken breast half on a work surface with the thick side facing to the right (if you're right-handed), and place your left hand down on the chicken breast. Using a very sharp knife, carefully cut the chicken breast from the thick side to about 1/2 inch from the edge of the thin side, in a horizontal cut. Open the cut chicken breast and spread it out like an open book. Using a meat mallet, gently pound the butterflied chicken breast out until it's an even thickness.
• Place the flour into a shallow dish, and dredge each chicken breast on both sides with flour. Melt the garlic butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it stops foaming, and cook each chicken breast until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Sprinkle each breast with salt and pepper. Remove the chicken breasts to a platter, and keep warm.
• Cook and stir the mushrooms in the same skillet as the chicken until the mushrooms have absorbed the remaining butter in the skillet and have begun to turn brown at the edges. Stir in capers, lemon juice, white wine, and chicken demi-glace, and stir to combine. Reduce to a simmer. Adjust salt and pepper again, and stir the parsley into the sauce.
• Remove the chicken breasts to plates, and serve the sauce over the chicken. Garnish each serving with a lemon slice.
