VEAL CHOP HOLSTEIN SCHNITZEL

Steps:

• Place the butterflied veal chops in between layers of plastic wrap and gently pound with the flat side of a meat mallet. Sprinkle the chops generously with salt.
• Set up a standard breading procedure: In 3 large dishes, set up one with the flour, one with 2 eggs beaten with 2 tablespoons water and one with the breadcrumbs.
• Dust each chop in the flour and shake off the excess. Dip each chop in the egg mixture and then run through the breadcrumbs. Place the breaded veal on a sheet tray and let them hang out in the fridge for at least 1 hour to allow the breading to set.
• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Add enough oil to coat a large saute pan until it is a depth of 1/4-inch. Add 2 tablespoons butter and bring the pan to a medium heat. Working in batches, fry the veal chops until they are golden brown on both sides, about 6 minutes total. Drain each chop on paper towels and salt each one as they come out of the oil. After the second chop, change out the oil and butter and fry the 2 remaining chops. Reserve the cooked chops in the warm oven.
• Coat a nonstick saute pan lightly with oil and fry the remaining 4 eggs sunny side up. The whites should be cooked and the yolks should be warm and runny, cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
• Top each chop with a sunny side up egg and pour over some of the Anchovy Caper Sauce. Serve immediately.
• Wine Pairing Suggestion: Gruner Veltliner
• In a small saute pan, add the olive oil, anchovy filets and garlic. Set the pan over medium heat and allow the garlic to brown lightly and the anchovy fillets to melt. Once the garlic is golden, it has fulfilled its garlic destiny; remove it and discard. Add in the chopped capers. Melt in the butter and finish the sauce with the parsley as you are ready to plate.

VEAL CHOPS WITH ROQUEFORT BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the butter and Roquefort cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on medium speed until smooth. Add the scallions and mix until combined. Cut a strip of parchment paper 4 1/2 inches wide and place the mixture on the short end of the paper. Roll into a log about 1 inch in diameter, rolling the parchment paper around the butter mixture. Chill.
• Sprinkle both sides of the veal chops generously with salt and pepper. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. When the coals are hot, grill the chops for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until almost cooked through. Remove to a platter and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 15 minutes. Serve with 1 or 2 slices of cold Roquefort butter on each chop.

GRILLED VEAL CHOPS WITH RAW SAUCE

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.
