Steps:
- Heat a skillet with oven safe handle over medium high heat. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Season the chops with salt and pepper. To the hot skillet, add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, then the chops. Brown the veal for 2 minutes on each side, transfer from the pan to a plate. Add another tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil to the pan, then the garlic and sweet peppers. Cook garlic and sweet peppers 3 to 5 minutes to soften, then add the wine to the pan. Return the chops to the pan with the peppers and transfer the pan to the oven. Cook the chops and peppers 12 to 15 minutes until juices run clear near the bone. Remove the pan from oven and add hot peppers and a splash of pepper juice. Transfer chops to a serving platter.

Steps:
- Select a dish large enough to hold the veal chops in a single layer. In the dish combine the lemon juice with one-fourth cup of olive oil, the garlic, salt and pepper and rosemary. Add the chops, turn them to coat all sides and allow to marinate for one-and-a-half hours, refrigerated.
- Preheat grill or broiler.
- Seed the peppers and cut them into inch-wide strips lengthwise. Brush with remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper. A good way to do this is to place the peppers, oil and seasonings in a plastic bag and shake them.
- Start grilling the peppers. When they are just beginning to sear, place the chops on the grill and grill them over very hot coals to the desired degree of doneness. They should take eight to 10 minutes for medium. Remove the chops and the pepper strips as they are done and arrange them on a platter.
- Serve at once, hot, or within 30 minutes at room temperature.

Steps:
- For the dressing: Place the basil, oil, mint, marjoram, vinegar, anchovy paste, rosemary, salt, pepper, garlic, lemon juice and onion in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until chunky. Let the mixture stand for 20 minutes.
- For the veal chops: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chops with the salt and pepper. Cook to medium rare, 10 to 12 minutes, turning the chops over halfway through the cooking time. Let the chops rest for 5 minutes.
- Spoon the dressing on top of the chops and serve.
VEAL CHOPS WITH ROQUEFORT BUTTER
Steps:
- Place the butter and Roquefort cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on medium speed until smooth. Add the scallions and mix until combined. Cut a strip of parchment paper 4 1/2 inches wide and place the mixture on the short end of the paper. Roll into a log about 1 inch in diameter, rolling the parchment paper around the butter mixture. Chill.
- Sprinkle both sides of the veal chops generously with salt and pepper. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. When the coals are hot, grill the chops for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until almost cooked through. Remove to a platter and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 15 minutes. Serve with 1 or 2 slices of cold Roquefort butter on each chop.
PEACH AND BLACK PEPPER VEAL CHOPS
Steps:
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine marinade mix, peach nectar, and veal chops. Squeeze out air and seal bag. Massage bag to ensure chops are coated. Refrigerate 3 to 6 hours to marinate.
- Set up grill for direct cooking over medium-high heat. Oil the grill grate when ready to start cooking.
- Prepare glaze in a small saucepan over medium heat. Combine jam, bourbon, and cracked peppercorns. Bring to boil, reduce heat to simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
- Remove chops from marinade and let come to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Discard marinade. Grill chops on hot, oiled grill for 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and brush with glaze. Cook an additional 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and glaze for 1 minute. Remove from heat and brush once more with glaze. Serve hot.
- INDOOR: Prepare and marinate chops as directed. Remove chops from marinade and discard marinade. Pat chops dry with paper towel. Place on foil line baking sheet or broiling pan and broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat source until well seared on 1 side, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Turn and brush with glaze and return to broiler and cook for 1 minute; turn and glaze and cook for 1 minute more for medium. To check for doneness, make a small cut in the thickest part of the meat; it should be slightly less done than you like it. Allow the chops to rest for 5 to 10 minutes (internal temperature will continue to rise). Brush with more glaze and serve.
GRILLED VEAL CHOP WITH FINGERLINGS, MUSHROOMS AND CHERRY PEPPERS
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!
VEAL CHOPS IN CHERRY-PEPPER SAUCE
You can use this sauce - spicy and fragrant and slightly syrupy, what the Italians call agrodolce - on veal chops as I call for here, or on pork chops, on steaks, on chicken. I bet it'd be good on grilled seitan or drizzled over tofu. The recipe is reminiscent of the cooking at red-sauce emporia like Bamonte's in Brooklyn, Rao's in Manhattan, Dominick's in the Bronx and, I hope, Carbone in Greenwich Village, where I first learned how to put it together at the elbow of the chef Mario Carbone. Serve with spaghetti dressed in butter and Parmesan, with garlic bread, with a spoon so you can slurp what's left on the plate. "It's a flavor that's purely Italian-American," Carbone told me. "You won't find it in Italy, no way."

Steps:
- Make the sauce: Drain the cherry peppers, reserving 1 cup brine, then stem, halve, core and seed them. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat, and swirl the olive oil into it. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the garlic, and sauté, stirring frequently, until it begins to color, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the peppers, the reserved brine and the white wine, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until the liquid has reduced by slightly more than half, 10 to 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat. (The sauce can be made a few hours ahead of time.)
- When you're ready to cook the meat, season it aggressively with salt and pepper. Place a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, and swirl the neutral oil into it. When the oil begins to shimmer, place the meat in the pan, working in batches if needed, and sear until the meat has browned, formed something of a crust and cooked through to medium-rare, 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Transfer the chops to a warmed platter.
- Add the sauce to the large, heavy-bottomed skillet in which you seared the meat, and warm over medium-low heat. Whisk the butter into the sauce until evenly distributed and the sauce develops a velvety sheen. Spoon sauce over chops, and garnish with parsley.

Steps:
- To marinate the veal chops, put the garlic, lemon zest, rosemary, olive oil and 1 /2 tsp salt in a container large enough to fit the chops. Give the marinade a quick stir, then add the chops and spoon the marinade all over them. Cover with cling film and put in the fridge for at least 6 hrs or overnight.
- To make the salsa, heat a heavy-based frying pan over a high heat. Add the vegetable oil and, once hot, throw in the peppers. Stir-fry to char the edges of the peppers, then sprinkle with salt and remove from the pan to cool. Next, add the garlic, olive oil, zest and spinach to a food processor, and pulse until you have a chunky paste. Pour into a bowl, add the green chilli and charred green pepper, then season a little.
- To make the steak seasoning, mix the paprika and polenta with 1 /2 tsp salt. Remove the chops from the marinade and wipe off any sliced garlic or herbs and excess oil. Sprinkle the seasoning over both sides of the chops.
- Heat a griddle pan over a medium heat. Cook the chops for 3 mins until they have nice char marks, then rotate them 45 degrees and cook for 3 mins more so that the chops have 'crosshatched' marks. Turn the chops over and cook for 3 mins only on this side, then remove from the griddle and rest on a plate for 4 mins. Put the chops on serving plates and spoon over the salsa.

Yield Serves 2
Number Of Ingredients 20
Steps:
- In a large skillet cook the onion in the oil over moderately low heat until it is softened. Add the shallot, the garlic, the bell pepper, and the eggplant and cook the mixture, stirring, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the eggplant is softened. Stir in the tomato, the herbs de Provence, the sage, the basil, the parsley, the salt, and black pepper to taste, cook the stuffing, stirring, for 1 minute, and let it cool.
- With a sharp knife make a 1-inch-long incision along the fat side of each chop and cut a pocket in each chop by moving the knife back and forth carefully through the incision. Stuff each chop with half the stuffing and secure the pocket with wooden picks. Brush the chops with some of the oil and in a roasting pan brushed with the remaining oil roast them in a preheated 475°F. oven, basting them with any pan juices, for 7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through but the flesh is still slightly pink near the bone.
- Transfer the chops to a cutting board, let them stand for 3 minutes, and discard the wooden picks. Arrange the chops on heated plates, pour the sauce, heated, on the plates, and sprinkle each serving with some of the parsley.
- In a blender blend together the bell pepper, the oil, the lemon juice, the vinegar, the cayenne, 1 tablespoon water, and salt and black pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality veal chops. Look for chops that are firm and pinkish in color with little marbling. Avoid chops that are brown or grayish.
- Season the veal chops generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
- Sear the veal chops in a hot skillet. This will create a nice crust and help to lock in the juices.
- Cook the veal chops over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from becoming dry.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the veal chops are cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare, cook to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium, cook to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium-well, cook to an internal temperature of 155 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the veal chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the veal chops with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
