Veal Chops With Arugula Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Start salad:
• Whisk together oil, lemon juice, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper in a large bowl until combined, then stir in tomatoes and onion.
• Make Veal:
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Gently pound chops (avoiding bone) to 1/8 inch thick between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with flat side of a meat pounder or with a rolling pin.
• Toast bread crumbs in a large 4-sided sheet pan in oven, stirring once or twice, until dry but not golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Cool completely.
• Stir crumbs together with cheese and 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper in a shallow bowl or pie plate. Sprinkle chops with 1/4 tsp each of salt and pepper.
• Line a large baking sheet with wax paper. Put oil in another shallow bowl or pie plate. Dip each chop in oil, letting excess drip off, then dredge both sides of chop (and bone) in bread-crumb mixture, pressing gently to help crumbs adhere. Transfer to baking sheet.
• Prepare a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium heat for gas).
• Oil grill rack, then grill chops, covered only if using a gas grill, turning once, until just cooked through and golden brown and grill marks appear, about 8 minutes total.
• Finish salad:
• Just before serving, add arugula and basil to salad and toss, then season with salt and pepper. Serve over chops.

Steps:

• In a large shallow baking dish, combine olive oil with garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper.
• Turn chops in olive oil mixture to coat them well.
• Marinate 10 minutes at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
• Grill veal chops on a hot barbecue 2 minutes per side.
• Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking about 6 minutes per side until veal is 145° on a meat thermometer.
• They should be just pink inside.
• Toss arugula with cherry tomatoes, lemon juice, salt and oil.
• Serve salad on top of veal chops.

Steps:

• Whisk 3 tablespoons oil and vinegar in large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set dressing aside.
• Place chops between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap on work surface, spacing apart. Using meat mallet, pound veal surrounding bone to 1/2-inch thickness. Rub each side of each chop with 1/2 teaspoon sage. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chops; cook about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to platter; cover and keep warm.
• Whisk any drippings from skillet into dressing. Add arugula and red onion to dressing and toss to coat. Top chops with arugula salad and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 175 degrees F.
• In a shallow dish, beat eggs and season with salt and pepper. Pour flour into another shallow dish. Mix together the bread crumbs, basil and thyme in a third shallow dish. Have ready one large plate.
• Season the veal with salt and pepper. Working with 1 piece of veal at a time, dip it first in the flour, shaking off excess. Next, place the floured veal into the beaten eggs, coating completely. Place the veal into the bread crumb mixture and gently press crumbs into the veal. Set aside on large plate and continue with remaining veal slices.
• In a large skillet with high sides, heat the oil to 375 degrees F. Have ready a baking sheet fitted with a rack. Carefully place 2 pieces of breaded veal in the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 6 to 8 minutes total. Place cooked veal on rack, season with salt and place in oven to keep warm. Continue with remaining veal.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the separated pieces of maitake mushrooms onto a baking sheet and toss with a little olive oil and salt and pepper. Roast until crispy, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set a chop upright on a cutting board with the meaty side facing up. Using a thin sharp knife, cut into the meat and cut through the center, toward the bone. Stop short of the bone, then open up the meat like a book. Do not remove the meat from the bone; the bone itself will be at the center of the butterflied chop. Place the meat between sheets of parchment or plastic with a dab of water and gently and evenly pound the meat out with a meat mallet, flipping the meat a couple of times, until it's 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
• Set up a dredging station: Line up 3 shallow bowls on the counter. Spread flour in one, beat the eggs in the second, and mix the fine bread crumbs, panko, Parm, nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste in the third.
• When the mushrooms are done, lower the oven temperature to 250 degrees F (leave the mushrooms in the oven). Place a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet and set in the oven.
• In large cast-iron skillet, heat about 1/4 inch oil over medium-high heat.
• Coat the veal in flour and shake off the excess. Turn a chop in the egg, shaking off the excess, then press into the bread crumb mixture. Fry the chops, one at a time, until deep golden, about 3 minutes on each side. Keep the cutlets warm on the prepared baking sheet in the oven.
• Serve the veal with lemon for squeezing and a side of mushrooms. Place the Arugula Salad with Sage and White Balsamic Vinaigrette under or on top of each cutlet.
• In a small bowl, whisk the garlic, sage, shallot, lemon juice, vinegar, and honey. Still whisking, stream in the EVOO to emulsify. Season with salt and pepper. Put the greens and tomatoes in a large serving bowl, add the dressing, and toss to coat.

Steps:

• Cut away and discard any tough bottom stems of the arugula leaves. Rinse and pat dry or use a spin-dryer. There should be about eight cups loosely packed. Cut away and discard the bottom ends of the endive. Separate the leaves. There should be about six cups loosely packed.
• Cut the tomatoes into one-inch cubes. There should be about four cups. Put the pieces in a bowl.
• Cut away the cores of the radicchio. Separate the leaves. There should be about six cups loosely packed. Put the radicchio in the bowl. Add the arugula and endive.
• Cut the onion slices in half. There should be about one and a third cups loosely packed. Add the onion to the bowl.
• Pour the olive oil and vinegar over the salad mixture. Toss to blend.
• Partially scrape away the meat from the chops but leave the meat attached at the largest portion of each bone. Place the meat, bones attached, between two sheets of clear plastic wrap. Use a flat mallet and pound the meat on one side. Turn the plastic-enclosed meat and pound on the other side. Take care not to pound holes in the meat. Ideally, you should have rounds of meat about eight to nine inches in diameter and about a quarter-inch thick.
• Dredge each chop on both sides in flour, pressing all over with the fingers to make the flour adhere. Shake off excess.
• Beat the eggs with salt and pepper. Dip the chops on all sides in the beaten egg. Dredge the chops on all sides in bread crumbs, pressing with the fingers to make the crumbs adhere.
• Heat three-quarters of a cup of oil in a heavy 10-inch skillet almost to the smoking point. Add one veal chop and cook about one and a half minutes or until golden brown on one side. Turn the chops and reduce the heat to medium. Cook on the second side about one minute or until golden brown. Drain each cooked chop on absorbent paper toweling and top with another layer of toweling. Press to extract excess oil. Continue cooking one chop at a time, adding a little more oil as necessary, until all the chops are cooked.
• Transfer each chop to an individual plate, top with an equal portion of the salad and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk 3/4 cup oil and lemon juice in small bowl to blend. Mix thyme, salt, and pepper in another small bowl. Rub thyme mixture all over veal chops; place in glass baking dish. Pour oil-lemon marinade over; let stand 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Combine shallots, vinegar, and remaining 1/4 cup oil in medium roasting pan; toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until shallots are browned and tender, about 15 minutes. Add tomatoes to shallots and roast until tomatoes are soft and browned, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes longer. Remove pan from oven. Add capers and 1 tablespoon reserved brine and stir to blend.
• Meanwhile, heat large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Drain veal chops and transfer marinade to heavy small saucepan. Add veal to skillet and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven and roast veal to desired doneness, about 10 minutes for medium.
• Bring reserved oil-lemon marinade to boil; boil 2 minutes. Place 1 veal chop on each of 4 plates. Divide shallot-tomato mixture among plates. Spoon Soft Polenta alongside. Drizzle with oil-lemon marinade. Garnish with arugula and serve.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, cheese and parsley. Season generously with salt and pepper. Pour into a large, shallow bowl or tray. Spread flour in a second shallow bowl and bread crumbs in a third. Set aside near stove.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine arugula, tomatoes and onion. Sprinkle with olive oil and lemon juice. Season with salt, and toss until leaves are coated. Dressing should be assertive and lemony. Set aside.
• Working one at a time, press each veal chop into flour on each side, then pat it off so that there is just a fine dust on veal. Dip chop into egg, coating both sides, and letting as much drain off as possible. Lay chop in bread crumbs, tapping it gently to make sure it gets coated, but ever so thinly. Flip it over, and coat the other side. Layer chops between waxed paper or parchment as you go.
• Heat oven to 175 degrees, and place a baking sheet on middle rack. Place a sauté pan large enough to fit 2 chops over medium-high heat. Pour in enough corn oil to generously cover base of pan. When oil shimmers (it should be very hot so the veal seizes immediately), add a chop and sauté until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brown other side. Transfer to baking sheet, and keep warm in oven. Repeat with other chops.
• To serve, place chops on each of four large plates. Place a large handful of salad on top of each, making sure each gets enough tomatoes and onion. Serve with a wedge of lemon, for squeezing over the meat.
