Veal Chops With Anchovy Sauce Recipes

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.

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.

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.

LAMB CHOPS WITH TOMATO, CAPER, AND ANCHOVY SAUCE

Sprinkle the chops with salt and pepper, then add the chops to the pan. Cook until the chops are browned, about 4 minutes. Using tongs, turn the chops and brown on the other side, about 3 minutes. Transfer the chops to a plate. 2 Add the tomatoes, anchovies, and capers to the pan. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Cook 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. 3 Return the chops to the pan and cook, turning them once or twice in the sauce until heated through and pink when cut near the bone. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
