Veal Chops With Anchovy Sauce Food

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 PARMIGIANA

Steps:

• Italian immigrants brought this dish to America, and since then veal parmigiana has become a classic New York dish, and rightly so. I love it when it's layered up like this, with the tomato sauce and cheese, then baked in the oven to gratinate. Feel free to swap veal for pork leg or even chicken that's been battered out. If you want to spike this with a bit of extra flavour you could also add a few capers or olives to the tomato sauce.
• Preheat your oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. Pick the leaves off the sprigs of basil and put them into a small bowl of water to keep them fresh. Finely chop the tender stalks. Put a pan on a medium heat and add a splash of olive oil, the chopped basil stalks, garlic and anchovies and cook for a few minutes. Prick the chilli a few times and add it to the pan. Allow everything to sizzle for a minute or so, then pour in the tinned tomatoes. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and simmer for 20 minutes. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.
• Meanwhile, prepare your escalopes. Mix the breadcrumbs in a bowl with the thyme leaves and Parmesan. Finely grate your lemon zest into the breadcrumbs, mix again, then lay out three plates in front of you. Put the flour on one and season it with salt and pepper, pour the eggs on to the next plate and put the herby breadcrumbs on the third. Dip the escalopes, one at a time, into the flour until well coated. Shake off any excess, then dip into the egg. Let the extra egg drip off, then lay the escalope in the breadcrumb mixture. Sprinkle a handful of crumbs over the top and press them down. Make a real point of getting breadcrumbs on to every part of the escalope.
• Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add a good splash of olive oil. Let it heat up a bit, then add your escalopes. If your pan isn't big enough, you may have to cook them in batches, adding a little extra oil if needed. Cook for a few minutes on each side until lightly golden, then transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper to drain. Get yourself a snug-fitting, appropriately sized baking dish (approx. 30 x 20cm) and spread the tomato sauce in the dish. Lay your escalopes on top, side by side. Tear the buffalo mozzarella into pieces and dot these over the dish with a few basil leaves.
• Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until golden, bubbling and deliciously cooked. Sprinkle the rest of the basil leaves over. Perfect with a crunchy zingy salad, but in America they'd also serve it with things like spaghetti, rice or mashed potatoes, polenta or crusty bread.

VEAL CHOP WITH PORTABELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 4 tablespoons olive oil with butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chops until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Once browned, stir in mushrooms and cook for 1 minute. Add chicken broth and rosemary; cover, and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in red wine, increase heat, and cook, uncovered, until sauce is reduced by half. Veal chops may be removed at any time to prevent over-cooking, then returned to the pan for the final minute.
• Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, and serve.

VEAL CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Season both sides of veal chops with salt, black pepper, and cumin.
• Put 3 to 4 slices butter in the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole dish; sprinkle in about 1/4 of the mozzarella cheese, 1/4 of the provolone cheese, and 1/4 of the white Cheddar cheese. Arrange a layer of veal chops atop the cheese layer. Top each chop with 2 to 3 slices butter, 1/3 of the mushrooms, and 1/4 of the mozzarella cheese, 1/4 of the provolone cheese, and 1/4 of the white Cheddar cheese. Continue layering with the remaining ingredients.
• Pour enough water into the casserole dish to just cover the bottom; cover dish with aluminum foil and an oven-safe lid.
• Bake in the preheated oven until veal is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour.

VEAL CHOPS WITH ANCHOVY SAUCE

Steps:

• Wipe the chops dry with paper towels. Dredge with flour.
• Use two frying pans large enough to hold two chops each comfortably. Heat the oil in each one and fry the chops, turning once, for about seven minutes on each side, or until the outside is brown and the inside pink and juicy.
• Meanwhile, in a small pan, saute the garlic in the butter until golden but not browned. Stir in the anchovy and parsley and cook for two minutes. Turn off heat and keep warm.
• When the chops are ready, place them on individual heated plates and spoon some anchovy sauce on each one.

VEAL ROLLS WITH ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• 1 Place a piece of cheese and an anchovy at one short end of each piece of veal. Sprinkle with pepper. Roll up the veal slices and pin each one closed with a toothpick. 2 In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Add the rolls and cook until the veal feels firm to the touch and is nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer the rolls to a serving dish and keep warm. 3 Turn the heat to high and add the wine to the skillet. Cook, scraping the pan, until the liquid is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and swirl in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the parsley. Pour the sauce over the veal and serve immediately. From "1,000 Italian Recipes."

VEAL CHOPS WITH PUTTANESCA SAUCE AND ALFREDO SPAGHETTI SQUASH

Steps:

• To a microwave-safe dish add 1/4 inch of water. Place the spaghetti squash in the dish cut side down. Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap. With a small knife puncture a few holes in the plastic so that the steam has a way to escape. Place the squash in the microwave on High power for 17 minutes.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat with 3 tablespoons of the EVOO. Add the anchovies, garlic, and red pepper flakes. With a wooden spoon, mash the anchovies into the oil as it heats. The anchovies will begin to melt about after 1 to 2 minutes and they will develop a nutty flavor. Add the olives, capers, and tomatoes and bring it up to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until ready to serve.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Liberally season the veal chops with salt and pepper. Once the pan 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 desired doneness. Remove the chops from the pan and let them rest, covered with a foil tent for about 5 minutes.
• Remove the spaghetti squash from the microwave very carefully-it is piping hot. Using a fork, scrape the "spaghetti" from the squash shell and place in a bowl. Toss the "spaghetti" with the Parmigiano-Reggiano, butter, parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Serve each chop with some of the puttanesca sauce on top and a portion of the "spaghetti Alfredo" alongside.
