Grilled Veal Chops With Merlot Sauce Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Rub the chops with 1 Tbsp.
• oil, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper and let sit on a plate for 15 minutes.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat and add remaining oil.
• Add chops to pan and cook until golden brown on one side, and flip.
• Remove chops from pan to a baking dish, brown side down and roast at 375ºF.
• for 10 minutes.
• Add wine and stock to cast iron pan and stir up brown bits from the bottom.
• Serve chops with juice from pan.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add carrots, celery and onions; saute until vegetables are brown, about 10 minutes. Add tomato paste; stir 30 seconds. Add peppercorns, rosemary, lemon peel and bay leaves; stir 1 minute. Add wine. Boil until mixture is thick, about 15 minutes. Add both stocks and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid is reduced to about 3/4 cup and thickens to sauce consistency, about 20 minutes. Strain sauce. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before using).
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Season veal with salt and pepper. Grill or broil to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer veal to plates. Spoon sauce over and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler or grill.
• Coat the veal chops on both sides with the olive oil, thyme, salt and pepper and set aside.
• Scoop the dried morels up from their soaking liquid and squeeze them, letting them drain back into the bowl. Strain the soaking liquid through several layers of cheesecloth. Rinse the morels under running water and slice them.
• Prepare the fresh morels. Rinse them quickly under running water and dry them with paper towels. Slice the tops and stems. Place them in a saucepan with the dried morels, the morel soaking liquid, the lemon juice and chicken stock and cook over low heat for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill the chops to desired doneness. They are medium when the flesh is pale pink (when you cut near the bone). While the chops are cooking, soften the shallots in the butter in the skillet. Add the morels with their cooking liquid, the vermouth and the creme fraiche, and cook them over high heat until the mixture has formed a thick sauce. Correct seasoning and keep warm.
• Place the veal chops on four heated plates. Pour the sauce next to the chops, dividing it evenly among the four plates and garnish the chops with parsley.

Steps:

• Put 2 teaspoons of extra virgin olive on a plate; sprinkle white pepper on the extra virgin olive oil. Take the veal chop and lightly coat it on both sides with the extra virgin olive oil and white pepper mixture. Then grill or broil the veal chop to your preference. When the veal chop is cooked remove from heat. Set aside on a warm platter.
• Using a non stick pan heat the 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil add the garlic and let it brown for 3 minutes, add 8 ounces of water and 10 leaves of basil, stem and all. Add in 3 teaspoons of flour; let everything amalgamate and using a wooden spoon stir for 10 minutes to create the flavor of the sauce and thickness. After the sauce is ready remove from heat, strain and serve on top of the veal chop. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, if needed.

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium.
• Season the veal chops generously with salt and let them sit for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Rub the chops with oil on both sides and arrange on the preheated grill on a very hot spot. After about 3 to 4 minutes, when the chops have developed lovely grill marks, rotate the chops 90 degrees to create the cross-hatch pattern. Cook the chops for an additional 3 to 4 minutes on that side and then repeat the process on the other side. This will cook the chops to about medium-rare. Remove the chops to a serving platter and set aside in a warm place to let the juices redistribute.
• While the chops are cooking, coat a large saute pan with extra-virgin olive oil and over medium heat add the garlic cloves.
• When the garlic has become golden brown and is very aromatic, remove and discard the garlic. It has fulfilled its garlic destiny. Add the potatoes, season with salt and brown the potatoes on each side. When the potatoes are brown on each side, add the mushrooms and season with salt. Saute the mushrooms for 5 to 7 minutes. When the mushrooms have become soft and aromatic, add in the cherry peppers and 2 to 3 tablespoons of the pepper vinegar (more if you like things REALLY spicy). Add the vinegar in baby steps, it can make things VERY spicy and there will not be any recovery. Check for seasoning and season with salt if needed (it will). Toss in the chives. Transfer the potato mixture to a serving bowl or platter and serve immediately with the veal chops drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil.
• Mouthwateringly spicy and delicious!

Steps:
