Pan Seared Veal Rib Eyes with Prosciutto and Fontina image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 (3/4 to 1-pound) veal rib eye steaks, bone in (1 1/2 to 2 pounds total weight)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons bacon fat
1/2 pound fontina, thinly sliced
1/4 pound prosciutto, thinly sliced (3 to 4 slices)
1/2 cup finely diced shallots
1 cup beef stock, best quality
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 170 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
  • Pound the steaks to 1/2-inch thickness over plastic wrap. Sprinkle each with salt and pepper and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until it reaches an internal temperature of 80 degrees F, about 10 minutes.
  • In 2 large saute pans over medium-high heat, divide the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the bacon fat between the pans and heat until shimmering. Add 2 steaks to each pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Place the steaks onto a wire rack over a baking sheet. Top with fontina and then the prosciutto slices, evenly covering the cheese.
  • Adjust the oven to low broil and place the pan in the oven. Broil until the prosciutto is crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove and allow to rest 5 minutes, lightly covered with foil.
  • In each saute pan, evenly divide the shallots and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Deglaze each with half the beef stock. Evenly divide the thyme and allow to reduce, 3 to 4 minutes. Combine the liquid into 1 pan, add the butter and adjust the seasoning, if desired.
  • Serve the steaks drizzled with the pan sauce and garnish with the parsley.

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 package fresh pizza dough, single pizza size
1/4 pound prosciutto, small dice
1 small eggplant, skin-on, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1 teaspoon salt, plus more for seasoning
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper, plus more for seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 (14.5-ounce) can fire roasted tomatoes
1/2 cup ricotta, drained
2 large eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
2 teaspoons chopped Italian parsley leaves
1 teaspoon chopped basil leaves
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary leaves
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, for work surface
1/4 cup cornmeal, for peel
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced 1/2-inch thick
Pizza stone preheated in oven

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Put a pizza stone on the bottom shelf of the oven to preheat.
  • Remove the dough from the packaging and let rest on a lightly floured surface.
  • In a large nonstick saute pan over medium heat, add the prosciutto and cook until crisp. Remove from pan to a plate and set aside.
  • Season the eggplant with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to the pan over medium heat and saute the eggplant for 5 to 6 minutes. Add in the garlic and the red pepper flakes. Saute 2 to 3 minutes more, being careful not to burn the garlic. Add in the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Let sauce reduce until all the extra liquid is gone, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  • In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, 1 egg, the Parmesan, pine nuts, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper, the parsley and the basil. Gently combine the ricotta mixture with the eggplant.
  • In a small bowl add the remaining egg and 1 teaspoon water and beat well.
  • Knead the dough a few times on a floured surface and add in the dried oregano and rosemary. Cut the dough in half and roll 1 piece into an oval about 12 to 14 inches long and 8 inches wide. Put the dough on a peel sprinkled with cornmeal and add half of the ricotta/eggplant mixture half way down the oval, leaving 2 inches on each side. Top with 3 slices of the mozzarella and sprinkle with half of the prosciutto.
  • Fold the dough over and roll the edge closed. Brush with the egg wash, sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt and slide off the peel onto the hot pizza stone.
  • Repeat with the other half of the dough and ingredients. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes, serve hot!

Provided by Lidia Bastianich

Categories     dinner, for one, main course

Time 30m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 small eggplant or zucchini, about 6 inches long
Salt and ground black pepper
Flour for dredging
Light olive oil (not extra virgin) or vegetable oil for browning
4 ounces thinly sliced veal scaloppine or chicken breast
1 tablespoon butter
1 shallot, minced
Splash of white wine or dry vermouth
6 basil leaves, or 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley, more for garnish
1/4 cup good quality tomato sauce, preferably homemade
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. If using eggplant, cut off ends and slice off two long strips of skin, one on each side. With 1 skin side up, so that each slice will have skin on both sides, slice eggplant lengthwise, 1/4inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and dredge lightly in flour. If using zucchini, slice on diagonal, 1/4 inch thick.
  • In a 6- to 8-inch ovenproof skillet (see Note), heat 1 tablespoon oil. Brown vegetable slices lightly on both sides, working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding pan. Add more oil as needed to keep pan lightly oiled. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Sprinkle veal or chicken with salt and pepper, and dredge lightly in flour. Melt butter in same pan until it bubbles, then brown meat lightly on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels. Add shallot to pan and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Pour in wine and simmer until syrupy.
  • Turn off heat and place pieces of meat in skillet. Lay basil leaves or parsley over them, then arrange vegetable slices on top. Spoon tomato sauce over, sprinkle cheese on top, and pour about 2 tablespoons water (more or less, depending on thickness of tomato sauce) around edges of pan. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until meat is cooked through and liquid in bottom of pan is thickened. Sprinkle with torn basil or chopped parsley; serve with crusty bread.
