Herbed Veal Chops Food

HERBED VEAL CHOPS

Steps:

• In a dish large enough to accomodate the 4 chops, combine olive oil, lime juice, and garlic; sprinkle half of each of the herbs on top. Season chops with pepper, and set in marinade. Turn chops over several times to coat both sides well. Sprinkle the remaining herbs on top of chops, and turn several times. Cover loosely with plastic wrap, and set aside at room temperature to marinate, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Heat a grill or grill pan to hot. Season chops with salt, and place on grill. Cook until chops are medium rare, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Remove from heat, and transfer to a serving dish.

HERBED VEAL CHOPS WITH BACON AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from the chops and season them lightly with pepper. Melt the 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 12 inch skillet. When melted add the bacon and saute for a few minutes or until somewhat crisp. If there is not enough fat in the skillet, then add more butter and heat up. Add the veal chops and saute them over high heat for 2 minutes a side, or just until browned. Lower the heat and continue to cook them uncovered and without liquid for another 5 to 7 minutes a side or until just cooked through.
• Remove the chops to a plate. Add the shallots to the skillet and saute until cooked through about 2 minutes. Add the lime juice, water and deglaze the pan. Add the herbs and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon the sauce over the chops.

HERB CRUSTED VEAL CHOPS

Steps:

• For the marinade, combine Garlic (4 clove), Lemon (1), Fresh Rosemary (1 1/2 tablespoon), Tarragon (1 tablespoon), Fresh Thyme Leaves (2 tablespoon), Fresh Mint Leaves (1 tablespoon), Kosher Salt (1/2 teaspoon) and Ground Black Pepper (1/2 teaspoon) in a bowl and toss together with your fingers.
• Place Veal Chops (2 pound) on a baking pan. Drizzle half the Olive Oil (1 tablespoon) over them. Sprinkle chops with half the herb mixture. Press herbs into the meat with your fingers, making sure they coat the chops. Turn chops over and repeat.
• Cover with cellophane and refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
• For the vinaigrette, in a medium bowl, combine Sherry Vinegar (1 tablespoon), Olive Oil (3 tablespoon), Honey (2 teaspoon), Shallot (1), Kosher Salt (1/2 teaspoon), and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 teaspoon). Whisk to combine.
• Add both Red Grape Tomatoes (1 cup) and Yellow Grape Tomatoes (1 cup). Toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4.
• Before serving, stir in some Italian Flat-Leaf Parsley (2 tablespoon) and Tarragon (1 tablespoon).
• To grill the chops, half an hour before cooking, remove the veal chops from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature. Fill a smoker box with 2 cups of wood chips, placing chips directly on gas burner on one side of the grill.
• Preheat grill to high heat, about 450 degrees (230 degrees C). When chips begin to smoke, add the veal chops to the opposite side of the grill from the wood chips, but over direct heat. Grill 5-6 minutes per side for medium doneness, turning halfway.
• Transfer chops to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes. To serve, spoon tomato vinaigrette onto each plate and top with a veal chop. Enjoy!
