Veal Or Chicken Hanson Recipes

Steps:

• Take each slice of veal loin and pound between layers of plastic wrap until each is about 1/2-inch thick.
• Season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides, then dredge in flour. Heat olive oil and butter in a large saute pan over medium high heat. Shake off excess flour and saute cutlets for about 2 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
• Put aside on a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet. Add porter, Marsala, and chicken stock to saute pan. Let reduce on high heat for about 5 minutes. After liquid has reduced by 1/4, add the mushrooms. Reduce heat and let simmer until mushrooms soften and sauce slightly thickens, about 7 minutes.
• Add veal back to sauce to warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven: 400 degrees F.
• Season the veal with salt and pepper. Preheat olive oil in saute pan and sear veal. Finish in oven for approximately 12 minutes until medium rare.
• Remove from oven and let veal rest on a platter for 4 minutes. Add shallots to pan and sweat. Deglaze pan with Madeira wine. Add the demi-glace, salt, and pepper. Shave fresh truffles into sauce. Swirl butter into the sauce to finish.
• Preheat saute pan to sear foie gras. Season foie gras with salt and pepper. Sear both sides. Plate the veal, 1 piece on each of 4 plates. Pour the sauce over the veal and finish the dish with seared foie gras and slice truffles over dish.

Steps:

• Lay out 2 medallions of veal and place 1 slice prosciutto and 1 slice fontina cheese on top of each piece of veal. Place a piece of veal on top of each to create a sandwiched effect and dust the outsides with flour. In a large saute pan, heat olive oil on medium heat, add veal and brown on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove excess oil, add mushrooms, Marsala wine and salt and pepper, to taste. Reduce for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove veal to plates and spoon mushrooms and sauce over veal.

Steps:

• Place each veal round between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound to a 1/4-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or the bottom of a small, heavy pan. Transfer the veal to a baking sheet. Combine the oregano, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl, then rub over the veal. Cover in plastic and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Remove the veal from the refrigerator and dredge in flour to coat both sides. Shake to remove excess flour, then set the veal aside on a plate or tray.
• In a large skillet, heat 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat until melted and bubbling. Working in batches, fry the veal until golden and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the onions to the pan and cook until the onions are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, Marsala, capers, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, and saute until soft and golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth and cook until the sauce is reduced by half and thickened.
• Transfer the cooked veal to a serving plate and pour the sauce all over it. Top with the parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Place pasta water on to boil and cook linguini 8 minutes, to al dente in salted water. Drain and reserve. Keep warm.
• Preheat a large, heavy skillet over medium to medium high heat. Add 1 turn of the pan or 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and the pancetta or bacon. Cook pancetta or bacon 1 to 2 minutes alone, then add onions and cook another 2 or 3 minutes. Add mushrooms to the pan and cook together with the onions 3 to 5 minutes.
• Season veal strips with salt and pepper. In a second skillet preheated over medium high heat, add 1 1/2 turns of extra-virgin olive oil and 1 clove smashed garlic. Quick-fry half of the veal searing each side of the strips 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer cooked veal strips and garlic to a plate and repeat. Add all of the cooked strips and garlic to the onions and mushrooms then add wine to the pan and lift up all of the drippings. Cook wine down to evaporate the alcohol about 2 to 3 minutes. Stir olives and parsley into veal and mushrooms. Serve portions of veal, mushrooms and green olives on a bed of hot linguini tossed with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, butter and grated cheese.

Steps:

• Take veal or chicken & pound thin between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until 1/2" thick. Season lightly with salt & pepper on both sides & then dredge in flour.
• Heat olive oil & butter in a large pan over medium heat, shake off excess flour from veal & saute about 2 minutes per side until lightly browned. Remove & set aside.
• To pan add molasses, wine & stock. Let reduce on high heat for 5 minutes, after reduction of 1/4th, add mushrooms. Reduce heat, cover & simmer until mushrooms soften & sauce thickens slightly, about 7 minutes.
• Add veal back to pan & warm.
• Serve with fettucine that has been cooked & then tossed with a little olive oil, parmesan cheese & parsley.

Steps:

• First, make bearnaise sauce.
• In a small saucepan, combine the tarragon, shallots, vinegar and wine over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half.
• Remove from heat and set aside.
• Place a stainless steel bowl over a saucepan containing simmering water, or use a double boiler.
• Whisk the egg yolks in the bowl until doubled in volume; slowly add the melted butter, continue beating until sauce is thickened.
• Stir in reserved shallot reduction.
• Season with salt and pepper, set aside wrapped in a warm spot (makes one cup).
• Now, make veal.
• Blanch asparagus tips in simmering water, drain and set aside.
• Poach crab legs in water, white wine and lemon slices for 5 minutes, then shell with a crab cracker and reserve meat.
• In a shallow dish combine flour, salt and pepper; coat pieces of veal.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 tbsp of butter and fry cutlets 3 minutes each side until golden brown; remove the veal to a warm platter.
• Using the same pan, melt remaining butter, then stir in shallots and tarragon.
• Add olive oil, asparagus and crab.
• Saute 2 minutes to warm.
• To serve: place asparagus and crab on top of each cutlet; drizzle each with sauce, and serve hot.

Steps:

• In a 4-quart casserole place stock, veal, onion, celery, leeks, garlic, 1 cup mushrooms, thyme and parsley sprigs, and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 1 1/2 hours, skimming frequently.
• Boil pearl onions for 5 minutes. Drain. Heat oil in a large skillet. Add remaining mushrooms and cook until tender. Toss in onions. Set aside.
• When veal is tender, drain it. Reserve 3 cups stock, discarding vegetables and herbs. Wipe out casserole and melt butter in it. Whisk in flour, cook one minute. Whisk in stock, cook 5 minutes. Whisk in cream. Add veal, mushrooms and onions. Simmer 5 minutes and re-season. Serve, garnished with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• With a chef's knife, cut the bread (including the crusts) into 1/2- to 1-inch cubes and spread on a baking sheet in a single layer. Set them out overnight until completely dry. Alternatively, place the baking sheet in a 200-degree oven until the bread is completely dry but not browned at all, turning and stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. Transfer dried bread to a mini chopper or food processor, and process until as fine as possible, about 1 minute.
• Transfer bread crumbs to a fine-mesh strainer set over a large bowl. Sift the fine crumbs into the bowl, leaving behind coarser crumbs. Discard the coarse crumbs, or process and sift again. (You can repeat this several times, but there are diminishing returns.)
• Working one at a time, place a cutlet between two sheets of parchment paper or in a heavy-duty zip-top bag. Pound with a flat mallet or the bottom of a skillet or saucepan, aiming at the thickest parts with the heel of the pan. The goal is to stretch the pork cutlets to about four times their original surface area (twice as wide, twice as long) with about 1/8-inch thickness. Do not pound so aggressively that the meat tears or frays. Transfer to a large plate or tray, season lightly with salt and pepper, and repeat with remaining cutlets.
• When ready to cook, heat oven to 225 degrees. Set up a breading station next to the stove with four rimmed baking sheets or dishes large enough to fit one cutlet with plenty of space around it. Leave the one farthest from the stove empty, add flour to the second, beaten eggs to the third, and the bread crumbs to the one closest to the stove. (It will seem like too many bread crumbs, and that is OK.)
• Add the vodka to a small bowl. Nearby, have a pastry brush, a clean kitchen towel, a timer, a large fork or thin slotted spatula, a large plate lined with paper towels, extra paper towels, a cooling rack set in a rimmed sheet pan, a fine-mesh fat skimmer in a small saucepan or heatproof bowl, and an instant-read thermometer.
• When ready to cook, heat the lard in a large wok, Dutch oven or deep, steep-walled sauté pan over medium-high until it registers 375 to 400 degrees on the instant-read thermometer. Adjust flame to maintain that temperature throughout the cooking process.
• Working one at a time, place a cutlet in the empty rimmed baking sheet. Brush the meat with vodka, completely covering both sides with a thin layer. Immediately transfer the cutlet to the flour. Gently shake the baking sheet. Then, using your fingertips, pick up the cutlet from one edge and flip it over. Shake the baking sheet again to coat the second side with flour. Pick up the cutlet with your fingertips, shake gently to knock off excess flour, then inspect to ensure that there is a thin, even layer of flour across the whole cutlet. If necessary, re-dredge it to cover up any un-floured spots, but be careful not to fold the cutlet, which can cause the flour to bunch.
• Lay the cutlet onto the eggs. Shake the baking sheet gently. Using your fingertips, pick up the cutlet from one edge and flip it over. Pick up the cutlet with your fingertips, allowing excess egg to drain for a few seconds, then inspect to ensure that the cutlet is thoroughly coated. If necessary, dip the cutlet back into the egg to cover any dry spots.
• Transfer the cutlet to the bread crumbs. Using your fingers, scoop crumbs from around the cutlet and pile them on top, completely covering the cutlet. Do not press on the crumbs or cutlet at any point. Shake the baking sheet for a few seconds. Then, using your fingertips, pick up the cutlet from one edge, flip it, and return it to the bread crumbs. Shake the baking sheet, then pick up the cutlet with your fingertips and gently shake off excess crumbs, being careful not to fold or crease the cutlet.
• Carefully lay the cutlet onto the hot fat, starting near you and draping it away from you to avoid accidentally splashing yourself with hot oil. As fast as you can, wipe your fingers clean on the kitchen towel. Then, start swirling the pan, allowing the fat to splash over and around the cutlet for exactly 30 seconds. Using the fork or a thin, slotted spatula, pick up the cutlet from one edge and carefully flip it, being careful not to splash hot fat. Continue to cook, swirling. The cutlet should start to puff and inflate. Keep cooking while swirling until the cutlet is golden brown and crisp, about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
• Using the fork or slotted spatula, pick up the cutlet from one edge and transfer to the paper towel-lined plate. Blot the top very gently with an extra paper towel, then transfer to the rack on the rimmed baking sheet and transfer to the oven to keep warm. Use the fine-mesh strainer to skim off the foam and remove as many stray bread crumbs from the fat as possible.
• Reheat the fat to 375 to 400 degrees and repeat Steps 7 to 11 for the remaining cutlets.
• Serve cutlets immediately with lemon wedges, lingonberry jam or cranberry sauce.
