VEAL CHOPS AND BALSAMIC-THYME ROASTED TOMATOES AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• Place the portobello mushrooms and plum tomatoes on a rimmed cookie sheet. Season with salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, and the thyme; toss in the seasonings to coat thoroughly. Arrange the mushrooms gill side up and the tomatoes flesh side up. Put them in the oven and roast for 12 minutes, or until cooked through. Once roasted, remove from the oven, thinly slice the mushrooms, and cut the plum tomatoes in half again. Reserve any pan juices.
• While the mushrooms and tomatoes are roasting, start the veal chops. 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 8 to 10 minutes, or until the desired doneness. Remove the chops from the pan and let them rest, tented with aluminum foil, for about 5 minutes.
• While the veal chops are resting, return the skillet to medium-high heat, add the shallots, and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and the chicken stock. Bring up to a simmer and reduce by half, about 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the heat off and add the butter, stirring with a spoon until the butter has completely melted. Add the parsley and the roasted sliced mushrooms and roasted chopped tomatoes along with any pan juices, and stir to combine. Serve the chops with the balsamic-thyme roasted tomatoes and mushrooms, and with some crusty bread.

VEAL CHOPS ITALIANO

Steps:

• If using dried thyme, rub it between your palms for a few seconds to release the oils and crush it to a course powder.
• Sprinkle the chops with the thyme, salt and pepper to taste.
• In a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, brown the chops on both sides using 2T of the oil.
• Remove the chops to a plate and add the shallots, garlic and crushed red pepper to the pan with another 1T of oil.
• When the garlic and shallots soften and start to brown, add the wine and boil until reduced by half, then add the tomatoes and their juices.
• As soon as the tomatoes start to boil, add the chops back to the pan, reduce the heat to medium and cover for about 10 minutes or so, just until the chops are about medium rare (or to taste).
• Remove the chops to a serving platter and add the butter and half of the parsley to the pan, swirling until the butter just melts and the sauce starts to thicken.
• Spoon the sauce over the chops, then drizzle the remaining 1T of olive oil over and sprinkle with the remaining parsley.

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

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.
