Roasted Veal Chop With Morels Recipes

Steps:

• If dried morels are used, place them in a mixing bowl and add hot but not boiling water to cover. Let stand until the water is cool. Drain the morels and pat dry. If fresh mushrooms are used, slice them and set aside.
• Heat four tablespoons of the butter in a skillet over medium heat and add the shallots. Cook briefly, about half a minute, stirring, and add the mushrooms. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, about three minutes. Add the lemon juice, and cover and cook five minutes over low heat. Add two tablespoons of the white wine, and cover and cook over very low heat for five minutes. Add the cream, cover and cook over slightly higher heat about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. At this point, the cream should be reduced and thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste and the Madeira or Sherry.
• Dredge the chops in the flour and shake off any excess. Heat the remaining butter and the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer. Cook over relatively high heat about five minutes, or until nicely browned on one side. Turn and cook the chops about five to 10 minutes on the second side until they are just cooked through. Do not overcook or the chops will become dry.
• Remove the chops to a serving platter and keep them warm. Pour off most of the fat from the skillet. Add the remaining wine and cook briefly. Add the broth and cook over relatively high heat until reduced to about one-third cup. Add the mushrooms in cream sauce and blend. Pour over the chops and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brown the roast slowly in a Dutch oven in the butter. Add the chicken stock. Remove from the heat. Lay a piece of waxed paper directly on top of the meat and then cover the pot. Bake in the oven for two-and-a-half hours, or until the meat is tender.
• If the morels are very gritty, rinse them quickly under running water and dry with paper towels. Slice them and place them in a saute pan. Pour in the cream and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the cream has been absorbed by the mushrooms. Season to taste with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
• Remove roast from pan. Place on serving dish. Add one-half to one cup of the pan juices to the mushrooms, heat and serve with the roast.

Steps:

• Put morels in a small mixing bowl and add hot water to cover. Let stand 30 minutes or longer. Drain the mushrooms and pat dry.
• Sprinkle chop with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Heat one tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan and add shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Add lemon juice and cover. Cook about 3 minutes.
• Add half the white wine, cover and cook 5 minutes. Add the cream, cover and cook about 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper and the Madeira wine. Swirl in 1 teaspoon butter. Set aside.
• Dredge chop in flour and shake off excess.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small skillet and add the chop. Cook over moderately high heat until browned on one side, about 5 minutes.
• Turn the chop and cook about 15 minutes. Transfer chop to a warm platter.
• Pour off most of the fat from skillet and add remaining tablespoon of white wine. Stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to bottom of the skillet. Add chicken broth and cook over relatively high heat until liquid is reduced by half. Spoon mushroom sauce into the skillet and stir to blend. Bring to a boil and add the chop. Turn the chop in the sauce.
• Serve chop with the sauce spooned over and with fine buttered noodles as accompanying dish.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter and the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add veal chops, and sear until golden, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate, and keep warm.
• Add the onion and garlic to the pan, and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, and cook, tossing occasionally, until they have released all of their juices and most of the liquid has evaporated. Add the wine, and cook, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of pan with a wooden spoon, until the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Stir in the stock and cream, return chops to pan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer gently 30 minutes. Continue cooking, uncovered, until meat is very tender and sauce has thickened, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, place potatoes in a large saucepan of cold, salted water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer gently until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; pass potatoes through a potato ricer, and return to saucepan. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the milk, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and set aside until ready to serve.
• Pour warm sauce over the chops and mashed potatoes, and serve with greens on the side.

Steps:

• Mince garlic and mash with salt. In a small bowl stir together garlic paste, herbs, pepper, and 3 tablespoons oil. Pat veal chops dry. Reserve 1 tablespoon herb mixture for sauce and rub remainder evenly onto chops. Veal chops can be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Chill reserved herb mixture, covered.
• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Quarter shallots and tomatoes lengthwise and in a bowl toss with 1 tablespoon oil, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange tomatoes, cut sides up, in one layer in a shallow baking pan with shallots and roast in upper third of oven 20 minutes. Halve and pit olives. While vegetables are roasting, in a 12-inch nonstick skillet heat remaining tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sear chops in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer chops as seared to another shallow baking pan (do not wash skillet).
• Reduce temperature to 375°F. Transfer shallots and tomatoes to lower third of oven and put chops in upper third of oven. Roast vegetables until tender and caramelized, about 20 minutes. Roast chops until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into chops registers 160°F. for medium, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While chops and vegetables are roasting, pour wine into skillet with reserved herb mixture and boil, scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Boil mixture until reduced to about 1/4 cup, about 5 minutes. Add broth and boil mixture until reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 5 minutes.
• When chops are cooked, pour any meat juices from baking pan into wine mixture and bring jus to a boil. Cut butter into pieces and add with olives to jus. Swirl skillet to incorporate butter and boil until jus is slightly thickened. Season jus with salt and pepper. Serve chops over polenta with shallots and tomatoes, drizzled with olive jus.

Steps:

• Prepare grill and preheat oven to 425°F. Bring veal chops to room temperature (about 20 minutes).
• Rub chops lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill chops on a rack set about 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until evenly browned, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, chops may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat). Arrange chops in one layer in a shallow baking pan. Roast chops in middle of oven 15 to 20 minutes for medium, juicy barely pink meat.
• Serve chops with sauce.

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:

• Whisk 3/4 cup oil and lemon juice in small bowl to blend. Mix thyme, salt, and pepper in another small bowl. Rub thyme mixture all over veal chops; place in glass baking dish. Pour oil-lemon marinade over; let stand 15 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Combine shallots, vinegar, and remaining 1/4 cup oil in medium roasting pan; toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until shallots are browned and tender, about 15 minutes. Add tomatoes to shallots and roast until tomatoes are soft and browned, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes longer. Remove pan from oven. Add capers and 1 tablespoon reserved brine and stir to blend.
• Meanwhile, heat large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Drain veal chops and transfer marinade to heavy small saucepan. Add veal to skillet and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven and roast veal to desired doneness, about 10 minutes for medium.
• Bring reserved oil-lemon marinade to boil; boil 2 minutes. Place 1 veal chop on each of 4 plates. Divide shallot-tomato mixture among plates. Spoon Soft Polenta alongside. Drizzle with oil-lemon marinade. Garnish with arugula and serve.
