Veal With Tomatoes, Olives and Lemon image

This Roman dish is simple to prepare and takes little time, perfect for a spring dinner party or a weeknight dinner for a family. Make sure the veal is pounded thin, and cook each side until just brown. Serve it warm, with a salad and a good crusty baguette. (The New York Times)

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Extra virgin olive oil as needed
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 cups chopped tomatoes (canned are fine; drain them first)
Salt and pepper
1 cup mixed good olives
8 to 12 thin slices veal, preferably from the leg, pounded slightly until less than 1/4-inch thick
Flour for dredging
1 lemon, thinly sliced
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200 degrees. Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add garlic and, when it sizzles, tomatoes and salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes break down, about 10 minutes, then add olives, and turn heat to low.
  • Put about 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium-high heat. Sprinkle veal with salt and pepper, then dredge it in flour. Sauté as many slices as will comfortably fit in skillet, just until brown on both sides, 5 minutes or less. Remove to a plate, and keep warm in oven while sautéing remaining slices.
  • Taste sauce, and adjust seasoning; spoon it over veal slices, and arrange lemon on top. Sprinkle with parsley, and serve.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds veal scaloppini
1 cup all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil and butter, equal amounts, enough to coat the skillet, plus 1 tablespoon
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
Capers
1/2 lemon, juiced, plus 1/2 lemon thinly sliced, for garnish
Chopped parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Pour the flour mixture on a plate, and season with salt and pepper. Dredge the scaloppini in the flour and shake off the excess, set aside. Melt butter and olive oil together in a skillet over medium fire. Add scaloppini to skillet and brown on both sides. Set aside until all the veal has been cooked. After the veal has been removed from the pan, add the chicken stock to the pan over high heat and scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen the brown bits. Cook until the liquid has thickened. Straining the liquid may be necessary to remove the larger pieces of the scrapings. Add 1 tablespoon of butter, capers, lemon juice and parsley to sauce. Stir over a high heat about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over the veal. Garnish with sliced lemons and serve.

Roasted Veal Chops with Shallots, Tomatoes, and Olive Jus image

Categories     Garlic     Olive     Tomato     Roast     Rosemary     Veal     White Wine     Winter     Thyme     Shallot     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons olive oil
six 1 1/4-inch-thick veal rib chops (12 to 14 ounces each), frenched if desired
9 large shallots (about 3/4 pound)
9 plum tomatoes (about 1 1/4 pounds)
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup drained Kalamata olives
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Accompaniment: soft polenta

Steps:

  • Mince garlic and mash with salt. In a small bowl stir together garlic paste, herbs, pepper, and 3 tablespoons oil. Pat veal chops dry. Reserve 1 tablespoon herb mixture for sauce and rub remainder evenly onto chops. Veal chops can be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Chill reserved herb mixture, covered.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Quarter shallots and tomatoes lengthwise and in a bowl toss with 1 tablespoon oil, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange tomatoes, cut sides up, in one layer in a shallow baking pan with shallots and roast in upper third of oven 20 minutes. Halve and pit olives. While vegetables are roasting, in a 12-inch nonstick skillet heat remaining tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sear chops in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer chops as seared to another shallow baking pan (do not wash skillet).
  • Reduce temperature to 375°F. Transfer shallots and tomatoes to lower third of oven and put chops in upper third of oven. Roast vegetables until tender and caramelized, about 20 minutes. Roast chops until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into chops registers 160°F. for medium, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • While chops and vegetables are roasting, pour wine into skillet with reserved herb mixture and boil, scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Boil mixture until reduced to about 1/4 cup, about 5 minutes. Add broth and boil mixture until reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 5 minutes.
  • When chops are cooked, pour any meat juices from baking pan into wine mixture and bring jus to a boil. Cut butter into pieces and add with olives to jus. Swirl skillet to incorporate butter and boil until jus is slightly thickened. Season jus with salt and pepper. Serve chops over polenta with shallots and tomatoes, drizzled with olive jus.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality veal chops: Look for chops that are evenly colored and have a firm texture.
  • Don't overcook the veal chops: Veal chops are best cooked to medium-rare or medium, otherwise they will become tough.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish, so choose a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Roast the tomatoes until they are caramelized: This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano, will add a lot of flavor to the dish.
  • Serve the veal chops with a simple sauce: A simple sauce, such as a lemon-caper sauce, will complement the flavor of the veal chops without overpowering it.

Conclusion:

Veal chops with lemon, olives, roasted tomatoes, and caper berries is a delicious and elegant dish that is sure to impress your guests. The veal chops are cooked to perfection and the combination of flavors is simply divine. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a romantic dinner.
