Veal Chops With Pesto Stuffed Mushrooms Recipes

VEAL CHOPS WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM SAUCE AND MASHED POTATOES

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.

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 STUFFED WITH FONTINA, PANCETTA, AND PORCINIS AND SERVED WITH BRAISED PEAS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• For the veal: Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan until almost smoking. Sear the chops on both sides until golden brown. Place them in the oven and continue cooking for 5 to 7 minutes for medium doneness. Remove the chops to a plate.
• Remove all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the pan and place over high heat on the stove. Add the shallot and cook until soft. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half. Add the stock and cook until reduced by half. Add the fresh thyme and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Place the chops on a plate and pour the sauce over.
• For the peas and carrots: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and garlic and cook until the carrots are slightly softened. Add the stock and thyme, cover the pan and bring to a simmer. Place the carrots in the oven and cook for 15 minutes. Remove the lid and continue cooking for 10 to 15 minutes, add peas during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
• Slice a slit horizontally in the side of each chop. Place 2 slices of fontina, 1 slice of pancetta and a quarter of the mushrooms in each opening. Season each chop on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice the mushrooms into 1/4-inch thick slices. Heat the oil in a large saute pan until almost smoking. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown. Add the garlic and thyme and continue cooking for 2 minutes. Set aside and let cool.

STUFFED VEAL CHOPS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix all the filling ingredients together until well combined. Set aside.
• Have grill preheated over high heat and oven preheated to 350 degrees F.
• Slit each veal chop on its side to create a pocket. Stuff each chop with filling. Use toothpicks to keep closed. Season chops with salt and pepper and brush with oil on both sides.
• Place chops on smoking hot grill and mark for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from grill and place in a baking dish. Finish cooking in oven for 4 to 6 minutes.

VEAL CHOPS WITH PESTO-STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Trim fat from chops and place in a shallow dish. For marinade, in a small bowl, combine wine, garlic, sage, Worcestershire sauce, and oil. Pour over chops; close bag. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes (or in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally).
• Drain chops, reserving marinade. Sprinkle chopes with freshly ground pepper. Grill chops on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium heat until desired doneness, turning and brushing once with marinade halfway through cooking. (12 to 14 minutes for medium rare or 15 to 17 minutes for medium).
• Meanwhile, carefully remove stems from mushrooms. Brush mushroom caps with reserved marinade. Place mushrooms, rounded sides up, on grill rack; grill for four minutes. Turn rounded sides down; spoon some pesto into each mushroom. Grill about four minutes more or until heated through. Serve the mushrooms with the chops.

PAN SEARED VEAL CHOPS WITH ROSEMARY

• oil, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper and let sit on a plate for 15 minutes.

PESTO STUFFED MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place all ingredients EXCEPT the mushroom caps into a food processor. Pulse until the pesto is combined, but still a bit chunky.
• Place a teaspoon or two of mixture into each mushroom cap. Bake for 15 minutes. I bake them on a rack in a baking pan because there is a surprising amount of liquid in a mushroom. I find they sort of stew if you bake them flat on a baking sheet.
• Either serve immediately or allow to cool to room temperature - they are delicious either way.
