Grilled Veal Chops With Mustard Food

GRILLED VEAL CHOPS WITH LEMON-MUSTARD-TARRAGON BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat coals in a grill until they are covered with ash (mesquite does magic with grilled meats). Season the veal chops with salt and pepper, then place on the grill and cook to desired doneness.
• While the chops are grilling, place the soft butter in a small mixing bowl. Add the other ingredients and incorporate them well with a fork. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (If making the herb butter far ahead, spoon onto a sheet of wax paper and form a log which can easily be divided later, then refrigerate.).
• When ready to serve, add a dollop of the herb butter atop each veal chop and serve immediately.

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.

VEAL CHOPS WITH WHOLE-GRAIN MUSTARD AND HONEY

Steps:

• Place the veal chops in a large shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the veal chops; cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Remove the veal chops from the marinade, reserving marinade.
• Lightly brush the veal chops with oil. Grill, covered, over medium-hot coals (350 to 400 degrees) 3 to 4 minutes on each side or to desired degree of doneness, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade.

BASIL LEMON GRILLED VEAL CHOPS

Steps:

• Juice the lemon and grate zest.
• Process olive oil, basil, juice and zest of lemon, garlic, and mustard in a blender or food processor until basil is minced. Transfer basil mixture to a nonmetallic bowl. Add veal chops. Marinate 30 minutes at room temperature or in refrigerator at least 2 hours.
• Prepare grill. Grill over medium-hot coals about 7 minutes per side, turning once and basting with marinade. Garnish with basil sprigs and lemon wedges.

VEAL CHOPS WITH MUSTARD SAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt butter with oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle chops with dried sage and pepper. Add to skillet and cook until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium and cook to desired doneness, about 1 minute per side for medium-rare. Transfer veal to plate; keep warm.
• Add shallots to same skillet and stir 1 minute. Add broth, 1 tablespoon minced sage and mustard to skillet and boil until very thick, scraping up browned bits, about 4 minutes. Add half and half and boil until liquid thickens to sauce consistency, about 1 minute. Mix in remaining 1 tablespoon minced sage and any juices exuded by veal. Adjust seasoning. Place 1 chop on each plate. Spoon sauce over. Garnish with fresh sage leaves and serve.
