Veal Chops With Balsamic Pan Sauce And Spinach Salad With Pecans Pears And Gorgonzola Recipes

Steps:

• Rub the chops with the garlic and rosemary, 1 tablespoon oil and salt and pepper and let sit on a plate for 15 minutes. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add remaining oil. Add chops to pan and cook until golden brown and then flip. Remove chops from pan to a baking dish and roast in 375 degrees F. oven for 10 minutes. Add wine and stock to cast iron pan and stir up brown bits from bottom. Serve chops with juice from pan.

Steps:

• 1. Prepare grill or preheat broiler Mix oil and vinegar in small bowl. Pour half of it into a shallow dish. Put the veal chops in the dish, coating well with the marinade. Let sit for 30 minutes.
• 2. Grill veal chops to desired doneness, basting with reserved half of the oil and vinegar mixture. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side for medium. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve at once. Serves 4

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.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the veal and sear until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Lower the heat and cook about 20 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• Add the pancetta to the pan stirring, until browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic. Begin adding spinach, turning with tongs, adding more as it wilts until all is in the pan. Cook for 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning.
• Season the chops with salt and pepper to taste, divide among 4 plates, and spoon spinach mixture on top. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large salad bowl, combine the spinach, pecans, bacon and blue cheese. In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients. Pour over salad; toss to coat.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine the tomatoes, basil, parsley, onion, salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar, and about 2 tablespoons of the EVOO. Allow the tomatoes to sit for 10 minutes so that the salt will leach out the juice of the tomatoes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO (twice around the pan). Liberally season the veal chops with salt and pepper. Once the skillet is screaming hot and you see the first wafts of smoke rising, add the chops to the hot skillet 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 7 to 8 minutes, or until desired doneness. Remove the chops from the pan and allow to rest, tented with 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 chops on top of some of the salad and spoon out some of the tomato balsamic juice from the bottom of the salad bowl to top each chop.

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.

Steps:

• In small sauce pan boil vinegar and soy for about 5 minutes to reduce.
• Add orange juice and turn to down to simmer.
• Mix sugar and pepper and press onto one side of each chop.
• Heat large skillet to med/high and spray with oil.
• Add chops seasoned side down to hot pan and cook for 3-4 minutes, turn and cook additional 4 minutes.
• Top each chop with Balsamic Syrup and serve.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat and heat oven to 350ºF. Rub chops with combined oil, garlic and rosemary. Grill 4 min. on each side.
• Mix pasta sauce and vinegar in 2-qt. baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Top with chops; sprinkle with cheese.
• Bake 25 min. or until chops are medium doneness (160°F). Serve topped with the sauce.
