SCALOPPINE WITH ANY MEAT



Scaloppine With Any Meat image

You can use any kind of meat to make these dead-simple scaloppine - veal, turkey, chicken, pork, even beef if you can find pieces thin enough. Cook them quickly in butter over high heat, then turn those buttery pan drippings into your sauce, seasoning it with garlic and a squeeze of lemon or lime. This needs no further embellishment. But a handful of capers, sliced olives, chopped fresh herbs or toasted sliced almonds warmed in the butter at the last minute wouldn't do any harm, either.

VEAL SCALLOPINI IN A SWEET RED PEPPER SAUCE



Veal Scallopini in a Sweet Red Pepper Sauce image

This recipe has been in the family for generations. The meat is so tender and with the red pepper sauce, is so flavorful you'll want to make it at least once a week! I love serving this with a spring mix salad with a balsamic vinaigrette. Instead of scallopini, you can use veal cutlets and sometimes beef cutlets. The beef cutlets would take another 10 minutes longer cooking with the sauce.

Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ pounds veal cutlets
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

2 red bell peppers, sliced
1 onion, chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 cup water
1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps:

  • Pound veal cutlets a few times with a meat mallet to tenderize, if desired. Beat egg with milk in a shallow bowl. Stir bread crumbs, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a separate bowl until well combined.

VEAL SCALOPPINE WITH FRESH CORN POLENTA AND SALSA VERDE-BROWN BUTTER



Veal Scaloppine with Fresh Corn Polenta and Salsa Verde-Brown Butter image

One of my favorite dinners growing up was my mother's veal piccata. Her recipe came from an old cookbook called The Pleasures of Italian Cooking, by Romeo Salta, a gift to her from my father. My father had been a devoted fan of Romeo Salta when he was the chef at Chianti in Los Angeles in the fifties. Back then, it was a swinging Italian joint with red-checkered tablecloths, opera 78s blasting, and red wine flowing into the late hours. My mother's (and Romeo's) veal was pounded thin, sautéed, and drenched in a lemony caper-butter sauce. There's nothing wrong with that classic rendition, but, to add another layer of flavor, I brown the butter and finish it with salsa verde, a pungent purée of capers, anchovies, garlic, oregano, and tons of parsley. To get the finest, crispy crust on the veal, I dredge it in Wondra, a finely milled flour sold at most supermarkets. This dish is home-style Italian comfort food at its best.

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 3/4 pounds veal top round
1 1/2 cups Wondra or all-purpose flour
1/4 to 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter
Salsa verde (recipe follows)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Fresh corn polenta (recipe follows)
2 ounces dandelion greens or arugula, cleaned and dried
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon marjoram or oregano leaves
1/4 cup coarsely chopped mint
1 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small clove garlic
1 salt-packed anchovy, rinsed, bones removed
1 tablespoon salt-packed capers, rinsed and drained
1/2 lemon, for juicing
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups fresh corn (from about 2 ears)
2 teaspoons thyme leaves
1 recipe polenta (see page 97)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the veal against the grain into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Cut the slices into eighteen 1 1/2-ounce pieces (or have your butcher do this for you). Pound the veal between sheets of plastic wrap to 1/8-inch thickness. Season the meat with salt and pepper. Dredge the veal in flour, coating well on both sides. Set the floured veal aside on a baking sheet.
  • Heat two large sauté pans over high heat for 2 minutes. Swirl 2 tablespoons oil in each pan, and wait a minute. Shake the excess flour from the veal, and place a single layer in each pan (make sure the pieces of veal are not crowded or overlapping). Cook a minute or two on each side, until the veal is nicely browned. Remove the meat to a baking sheet, and finish cooking the remaining veal, adding more oil to the pan, as necessary.
  • Pour the oil out of one of the pans but don't wipe it clean (those crusty bits are tasty). Return the pan to medium-high heat (you will only need one pan to make the sauce), and add the butter. Cook a few minutes, swirling the pan often, until the butter browns and smells nutty. Turn off the heat and wait a minute. Then stir in 1/3 cup salsa verde, 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch of freshly ground black pepper, and the juice of 1/2 lemon. Taste for balance and seasoning. Be careful-the butter will be very hot.
  • Spoon half the hot polenta onto a large warm platter, and scatter the dandelion greens over the top. Arrange the veal over the greens, allowing some of the polenta and greens to show through. Spoon the salsa verde-brown butter over the veal. Serve the rest of the polenta and remaining salsa verde on the side.
  • Using a mortar and pestle, pound the herbs to a paste. (You may have to do this in batches.) Work in some of the olive oil, and transfer the mixture to a bowl. Pound the garlic and anchovy, and add them to the herbs.
  • Gently pound the capers until they're partially crushed, and add them to the herbs. Stir in the remaining oil, a pinch of black pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Taste for balance and seasoning.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat for 1 minute. Add 2 tablespoons butter and, when it foams, add the corn. Season with the thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper and sauté 3 to 4 minutes, until the corn is just cooked and tender. Stir the corn into the polenta right before serving.
  • You can pound the veal and prepare the salsa verde a few hours ahead. You can make the polenta and sauté the corn ahead of time, too. Stir the corn into the polenta at the last minute.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 - 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 slices veal scaloppine, about 1 1/4 pounds
3/4 pound mushrooms
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup peanut, vegetable or corn oil
1/4 cup flour
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup finely chopped shallots
1/3 cup dry white wine

  • Pour off the oil from the skillet in which the scaloppine cooked. Add the butter and when it is hot, add the mushrooms. Cook briefly, shaking the skillet and turning the mushrooms. Add the shallots and cook briefly, stirring. Add the wine and cook, stirring to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom of the skillet. Pour the mushrooms over the veal and serve sprinkled with chopped parsley.

VEAL SCALOPPINE BOLOGNESE



Veal Scaloppine Bolognese image

Categories     Sauce     Side     Bake     Fry     Dinner     Veal     Boil

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 veal scallops, 2 to 3 ounces each
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
All-purpose flour for dredging (1 cup or more)
4 large eggs
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 tablespoons butter
3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, cut in 1/4-inch strips
1/2 cup dry Marsala
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup hot light stock (chicken, turkey, or vegetable broth) or water
5-ounce (or larger) chunk of Grana Padano or Parmigiano-Reggiano
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT
A meat mallet with a toothed face; a large heavy-bottomed skillet or sauté pan, 12-inch diameter or larger; a large rectangular baking dish or casserole pan, such as a 4-quart Pyrex dish (15 by 10 inches)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400° and arrange a rack in the middle.
  • Flatten the veal scallops into scaloppine, one at a time. Place a scallop between sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap, and pound it with the toothed face of a meat mallet, tenderizing and spreading it into a thin oval, about 1/4 inch thick. The pieces will vary in size.
  • Season the scaloppine with salt on both sides, using about 1/2 teaspoon in all. Spread the flour on a plate and dredge each scallop, coating both sides with flour. Shake of the excess and lay them down, spread apart, on wax paper. Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt in a wide shallow bowl.
  • Pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil and drop 3 tablespoons of butter into the big sauté pan, and set over medium-high heat. When the butter begins to bubble, quickly dip scallops, one by one, in the eggs, let the excess drip off, then lay them in the skillet. Fit in as many scallops as you can in one layer-about half the veal.
  • Brown the scallops on one side for about a minute, then flip and brown the second side for a minute. Turn them in the order in which they went into the skillet, and then transfer them to a plate. Remove any burnt bits from the skillet, and pour in the remaining olive oil; dip the remaining scallops in egg, and brown them the same way. (If your skillet is not big enough, it is fine to fry the veal in three batches.)
  • When all the scaloppine are browned, arrange them in the baking pan, overlapping them so they fill the dish in an even layer.
  • To make the Marsala sauce: Wipe out the skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in it, and set over medium heat. Scatter in the prosciutto strips, and cook, stirring, for a couple of minutes or longer, until crisped on the edges. Pour in the Marsala and white wine at the same time, raise the heat, and bring to a rapid boil. Cook until the wines are reduced by half, then pour in the stock, heat to the boil, and cook for a couple of minutes more, stirring, untl the sauce has amalgamated and thickened slightly.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, scoop out the prosciutto strips, and scatter them over the scaloppine in the baking dish, then pour the sauce all over the meat, moistening the scaloppine evenly.
  • To make the gratinato: shave the chunk of Grana Padano or Parmigiano-Reggiano with a vegetable peeler, dropping thin wide flakes of cheese over the scaloppine, lightly covering them.
  • Set the baking dish in the oven, and bake for 20 minutes or so, until the gratinato is nicely browned and very crisp (rotate the dish in the oven to ensure even coloring).
  • Remove the dish from the oven and, with a sharp knife or a spatula, cut around the scaloppine and lift them out, one or two at a time, with the topping intact, onto a platter or dinner plates. Drizzle the pan sauce around the scaloppine-not on top-and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality veal for the best flavor and texture.
  • Pound the veal cutlets thin to ensure even cooking and tenderness.
  • Use a good quality flour for dredging the veal cutlets.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to prevent the veal from sticking.
  • Cook the veal cutlets in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet and ensure even cooking.
  • Do not overcook the veal cutlets, as they will become tough and dry.
  • Use a good quality Marsala wine for the sauce to add depth of flavor.
  • Simmer the sauce for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve the veal scaloppine immediately with your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

Veal scaloppine Bolognese is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion meal. The tender veal cutlets are cooked to perfection in a flavorful Marsala wine sauce, and the dish is served with a creamy Bolognese sauce. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to enjoy veal.
