Veal chops with spinach & green pepper salsa image

Marinate rose veal chops in a zesty mix of lemon, garlic and rosemary then serve with the salsa for a simple yet flavourful supper

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 x 300g British rose veal chops
1 tsp smoked paprika
2 tbsp polenta
4 garlic cloves , sliced
zest ½ lemon
1 rosemary sprig, leaves picked
100ml olive oil
1 tsp vegetable oil
1 green green pepper , finely diced
1 garlic clove , grated
75ml extra virgin olive oil
zest ½ lemon
75g washed baby spinach
1 green chilli , sliced

Steps:

  • To marinate the veal chops, put the garlic, lemon zest, rosemary, olive oil and 1 /2 tsp salt in a container large enough to fit the chops. Give the marinade a quick stir, then add the chops and spoon the marinade all over them. Cover with cling film and put in the fridge for at least 6 hrs or overnight.
  • To make the salsa, heat a heavy-based frying pan over a high heat. Add the vegetable oil and, once hot, throw in the peppers. Stir-fry to char the edges of the peppers, then sprinkle with salt and remove from the pan to cool. Next, add the garlic, olive oil, zest and spinach to a food processor, and pulse until you have a chunky paste. Pour into a bowl, add the green chilli and charred green pepper, then season a little.
  • To make the steak seasoning, mix the paprika and polenta with 1 /2 tsp salt. Remove the chops from the marinade and wipe off any sliced garlic or herbs and excess oil. Sprinkle the seasoning over both sides of the chops.
  • Heat a griddle pan over a medium heat. Cook the chops for 3 mins until they have nice char marks, then rotate them 45 degrees and cook for 3 mins more so that the chops have 'crosshatched' marks. Turn the chops over and cook for 3 mins only on this side, then remove from the griddle and rest on a plate for 4 mins. Put the chops on serving plates and spoon over the salsa.

GRILLED VEAL CHOPS AND PEPPERS



Grilled Veal Chops And Peppers image

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dinner, easy, main course

Time 2h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 rib veal chops, each 1-inch thick
Juice of 1 lemon
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 sprigs fresh rosemary, lightly crushed
2 sweet red peppers

Steps:

  • Select a dish large enough to hold the veal chops in a single layer. In the dish combine the lemon juice with one-fourth cup of olive oil, the garlic, salt and pepper and rosemary. Add the chops, turn them to coat all sides and allow to marinate for one-and-a-half hours, refrigerated.
  • Preheat grill or broiler.
  • Seed the peppers and cut them into inch-wide strips lengthwise. Brush with remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper. A good way to do this is to place the peppers, oil and seasonings in a plastic bag and shake them.
  • Start grilling the peppers. When they are just beginning to sear, place the chops on the grill and grill them over very hot coals to the desired degree of doneness. They should take eight to 10 minutes for medium. Remove the chops and the pepper strips as they are done and arrange them on a platter.
  • Serve at once, hot, or within 30 minutes at room temperature.

VEAL CHOPS WITH BALSAMIC PAN SAUCE AND SPINACH SALAD WITH PECANS, PEARS, AND GORGONZOLA



Veal Chops with Balsamic Pan Sauce and Spinach Salad with Pecans, Pears, and Gorgonzola image

Categories     Salad     Sauce     Side     Pear     Veal     Pecan     Spinach     Simmer

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup pecan halves
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
4 bone-in rib veal chops, 1 1/2 inches thick
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
7 to 8 fresh sage leaves, chopped
1/2 small yellow onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (eyeball it)
1/2 cup chicken stock or broth
1 lemon
1 pear, your favorite variety, quartered, cored, and thinly sliced
1 sack of baby spinach (about 6 cups)
1/4 pound crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, or Maytag Blue
2 tablespoons cold butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Place the pecans on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they smell toasty and they are golden brown. Remove the nuts from the oven and cool them completely.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO (twice around the pan). Liberally season the veal chops with salt, pepper, and sage. Once the skillet is screaming hot and you see the first wafts of smoke rising, add the chops and cook on the first side for 5 minutes. Resist the temptation to move the chops around in the pan; you want a nice brown crust on them and messing with them won't help you get there. Before flipping the chops, reduce the heat to medium; flip and cook them on the second side for 8 to 10 minutes, or until desired doneness. Remove the chops from the pan and let them rest under a foil tent for about 5 minutes.
  • While the chops are resting, make the sauce. To the same skillet, add a drizzle more EVOO, the onion, and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the balsamic vinegar and chicken stock and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • While the sauce is simmering, prepare the salad. In a salad bowl, combine the juice of 1 lemon with about 3 tablespoons of EVOO and a little salt and pepper. Add the sliced pear and toss to coat. Add the spinach, reserved toasted pecans, and crumbled Gorgonzola or Maytag Blue cheese. Toss to combine and coat.
  • Turn the heat off the balsamic pan sauce, add the cold butter, and swirl until completely melted. Serve each chop with a little balsamic pan sauce and a serving of the spinach salad.

GRILLED VEAL CHOPS WITH RAW SAUCE



Grilled Veal Chops With Raw Sauce image

The "sauce" in this recipe is actually a tomato-spinach salad. You can pile it on top of your veal chop or eat it on the side. Whichever way you want to eat it, make sure that you drizzle some of the balsamic dressing on the chop. Delish!

Provided by Irmgard

Categories     Veal

Time 33m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tomatoes, cut into 8 wedges and each wedge cut in 1/2
1/2 cup fresh basil leaf, torn
1 cup flat leaf parsley, coarsely chopped
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
salt
ground black pepper
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
4 rib veal chops, about 1 to 1-1/2-inch thick with the bone in

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine the tomatoes, basil, parsley, red onion, salt and pepper, balsamic vinegar and about 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil.
  • Allow the tomatoes to sit for 10 minutes so that the salt will leach out the juice of the tomatoes.
  • Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
  • Drizzle 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil on a plate.
  • Place the chops on the plate and turn in the oil using tongs and season both sides liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Once the grill is ready, add the chops and cook on the first side for 5 minutes.
  • Before flipping, turn the heat down to medium or move to a little off the side of the grill for more indirect heat.
  • Flip and cook them on the second side for 7 to 8 minutes, then remove the chops and let them rest covered with a tented piece of aluminum foil for about 5 minutes.
  • Once the chops are cooked and rested, add the spinach and olives to the tomatoes and toss to coat.
  • Serve the salad on or alongside the chops and spoon some of the tomato balsamic juice from the bottom of the salad bowl to top each chop.

Categories     Dairy     Sauté     Rosemary     Veal     Spring     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary, divided
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, divided
Pinch of salt

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 4-inch-long fresh rosemary sprig
1 garlic clove, flattened
3 tablespoons dry white wine
3 tablespoons low-salt chicken broth

Steps:

  • Whisk butter, 1 teaspoon rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, and pinch of salt in small bowl to blend. Wrap rosemary butter in plastic wrap, forming 1 1/2-inch-diameter log. Chill at least 2 hours. (Can be made 1 week ahead. Keep refrigerated.)

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality veal chops for the best flavor and texture.
  • Marinate the veal chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes to enhance their flavor.
  • Cook the veal chops over medium heat to prevent them from becoming dry and tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the veal chops are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the veal chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
  • Serve the veal chops with a flavorful sauce or salsa, such as the spinach green pepper salsa described in the recipe.
