Grilled Veal Chops With Morel Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Put 2 teaspoons of extra virgin olive on a plate; sprinkle white pepper on the extra virgin olive oil. Take the veal chop and lightly coat it on both sides with the extra virgin olive oil and white pepper mixture. Then grill or broil the veal chop to your preference. When the veal chop is cooked remove from heat. Set aside on a warm platter.
• Using a non stick pan heat the 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil add the garlic and let it brown for 3 minutes, add 8 ounces of water and 10 leaves of basil, stem and all. Add in 3 teaspoons of flour; let everything amalgamate and using a wooden spoon stir for 10 minutes to create the flavor of the sauce and thickness. After the sauce is ready remove from heat, strain and serve on top of the veal chop. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, if needed.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler or grill.
• Coat the veal chops on both sides with the olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper and set aside.
• Scoop the dried morels up from their soaking liquid and squeeze them, letting them drain back into the bowl. Strain the soaking liquid through several layers of cheesecloth. Rinse the morels under running water and slice them.
• Prepare the fresh morels. Rinse them quickly under running water and dry them with paper towels. Slice the tops and stems. Place them in a saucepan with the dried morels, the morel soaking liquid, the lemon juice and chicken stock and cook over low heat for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill the chops to desired doneness. They are medium when the flesh is pale pink (when you cut near the bone). While the chops are cooking, soften the shallots in the butter in the skillet. Add the morels with their cooking liquid, the vermouth and the creme fraiche, and cook them over high heat until the mixture has formed a thick sauce. Correct seasoning and keep warm.
• Place the veal chops on four heated plates. Pour the sauce next to the chops, dividing it evenly among the four plates and garnish the chops with parsley.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine the tomatoes, basil, parsley, red onion, salt, 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-high heat. Drizzle 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it, on a plate. Place chops on plate and turn in extra-virgin olive oil using tongs and season both sides liberally with salt and pepper. Once the grill pan or grill is screaming hot, add the chops and cook on the first side for 5 minutes. Resist the temptation to move the chops around, you want nice grill markings and a good crust on them. Before flipping the chops, reduce the heat to medium or move chops a little off to the side on an outdoor grill for more indirect heat. Flip and cook them on the second side for 7 to 8 minutes, 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 out some of the tomato balsamic juice from the bottom of the salad bowl to top each chop.

Steps:

• Put morels in a small mixing bowl and add hot water to cover. Let stand 30 minutes or longer. Drain the mushrooms and pat dry.
• Sprinkle chop with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Heat one tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan and add shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add lemon juice and cover. Cook about 3 minutes.
• Add half the white wine, cover and cook 5 minutes. Add the cream, cover and cook about 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper and the Madeira wine. Swirl in 1 teaspoon butter. Set aside.
• Dredge chop in flour and shake off excess.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet and add the chop. Cook over moderately high heat until browned on one side, about 5 minutes.
• Turn the chop and cook about 15 minutes. Transfer chop to a warm platter.
• Pour off most of the fat from skillet and add remaining tablespoon of white wine. Stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to bottom of the skillet. Add chicken broth and cook over relatively high heat until liquid is reduced by half. Spoon mushroom sauce into the skillet and stir to blend. Bring to a boil and add the chop. Turn the chop in the sauce.
• Serve chop with the sauce spooned over and with fine buttered noodles as accompanying dish.

Steps:

• In a small heavy saucepan boil water with sugar, without stirring, until a golden caramel. Remove pan from heat and carefully add red-wine vinegar and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar down side of pan (mixture will bubble and steam). Stir mixture over moderate heat until caramel is dissolved,
• about 3 minutes. Remove pan from heat.
• In a heavy saucepan cook morels in butter, stirring, over moderate heat until liquid from morels is evaporated, about 5 minutes. Transfer morels with a slotted spoon to a bowl and reserve. Add shallots to pan and cook, stirring, until golden. Stir in wine and boil until reduced to about 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Add stock and reserved morel soaking liquid (if using dried morels) and reduce to about 1 1/4 cups, about 15 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat and stir in caramel mixture. Sauce may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead and chilled, covered. Chill morels separately, covered. Reheat sauce over moderate heat before proceeding with recipe. Add morels to sauce with salt and pepper to taste. If desired stir in additional balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon at a time, and lemon juice.
• To soak dried Morels:
• Dried morels should be rehydrated in twice their volume of warm water until tender, 10 to 30 minutes. Lift morels out of soaking liquid and strain liquid through a fine sieve into a bowl, reserving it if desired. Pat drained morels dry with paper towels. (Do not eat raw morels as they can cause digestive disorders.)

Steps:

• Prepare grill and preheat oven to 425°F. Bring veal chops to room temperature (about 20 minutes).
• Rub chops lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill chops on a rack set about 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until evenly browned, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, chops may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat). Arrange chops in one layer in a shallow baking pan. Roast chops in middle of oven 15 to 20 minutes for medium, juicy barely pink meat.
• Serve chops with sauce.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add carrots, celery and onions; saute until vegetables are brown, about 10 minutes. Add tomato paste; stir 30 seconds. Add peppercorns, rosemary, lemon peel and bay leaves; stir 1 minute. Add wine. Boil until mixture is thick, about 15 minutes. Add both stocks and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid is reduced to about 3/4 cup and thickens to sauce consistency, about 20 minutes. Strain sauce. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before using).
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Season veal with salt and pepper. Grill or broil to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer veal to plates. Spoon sauce over and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Pour boiling water over morels in a small bowl and soak until morels are softened, about 30 minutes. Transfer morels with a slotted spoon to a medium-mesh sieve set over a bowl. Press on morels with back of spoon to remove excess liquid (be careful not to squeeze out all the moisture), then add to soaking liquid and reserve. Rinse morels to remove any grit. Reserve morels and liquid separately, allowing liquid to settle.
• While morels soak, let veal chops stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
• Pat chops dry and season with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper (total). Heat an ovenproof 12-inch heavy skillet (not nonstick) over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil and heat until smoking, then add veal chops and sear underside well, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn chops over and sear 1 minute.
• Add butter, garlic, and thyme to skillet and baste veal with melting butter. Transfer skillet to oven and cook, basting every few minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center of chop registers 130 to 135°F for medium-rare, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Transfer chops to a plate to rest. Discard garlic and thyme, keeping juices and fat in skillet, and return to burner over medium-high heat. (Handle will be very hot.) Add morels and sauté 1 minute. Add shallot and sauté 1 minute.
• Remove from heat briefly and add Cognac, then return to heat and deglaze, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until most of liquid has evaporated. Slowly pour in reserved soaking liquid, being careful to leave last tablespoon (containing sediment) in bowl. Add meat juices from plate and boil until liquid has reduced to about 1/3 cup.
• Stir in crème fraîche, swirling to incorporate, and boil until morels are lightly coated and liquid is slightly thickened. Stir in chives and tarragon and season with salt and pepper. Serve chops smothered with morels.

Steps:

• If dried morels are used, place them in a mixing bowl and add hot but not boiling water to cover. Let stand until the water is cool. Drain the morels and pat dry. If fresh mushrooms are used, slice them and set aside.
• Heat four tablespoons of the butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the shallots. Cook briefly, about half a minute, stirring, and add the mushrooms. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, about three minutes. Add the lemon juice, and cover and cook five minutes over low heat. Add two tablespoons of the white wine, and cover and cook over very low heat for five minutes. Add the cream, cover and cook over slightly higher heat about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. At this point, the cream should be reduced and thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste and the Madeira or Sherry.
• Dredge the chops in the flour and shake off any excess. Heat the remaining butter and the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer. Cook over relatively high heat about five minutes, or until nicely browned on one side. Turn and cook the chops about five to 10 minutes on the second side until they are just cooked through. Do not overcook or the chops will become dry.
• Remove the chops to a serving platter and keep them warm. Pour off most of the fat from the skillet. Add the remaining wine and cook briefly. Add the broth and cook over relatively high heat until reduced to about one-third cup. Add the mushrooms in cream sauce and blend. Pour over the chops and serve.

Steps:

• Whisk oil, wine, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper to blend in 13 x 9 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Add veal chops to dish and turn to coat with marinade. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour or refrigerate up to 4 hours, turning veal occasionally.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Remove veal from marinade, shaking off excess. Season veal with salt and pepper. Lightly oil grill. Grill or broil veal to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to platter. Garnish with rosemary sprigs and serve.
