Grilled Lemon Parsley Veal Chops Recipes

GRILLED VEAL CHOPS WITH RAW SAUCE

Steps:

• In a bowl combine the tomatoes, basil, parsley, red onion, salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar and about 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. Allow the tomatoes to sit for 10 minutes so that the salt will leach out the juice of the tomatoes.
• Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium high-high heat. Drizzle 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it, on a plate. Place chops on plate and turn in extra-virgin olive oil using tongs and season both sides liberally with salt and pepper. Once the grill pan or grill is screaming hot, add the chops and cook on the first side for 5 minutes. Resist the temptation to move the chops around, you want nice grill markings and a good crust on them. Before flipping the chops, reduce the heat to medium or move chops a little off to the side on an outdoor grill for more indirect heat. Flip and cook them on the second side for 7 to 8 minutes, remove the chops and let them rest covered with a tented piece of aluminum foil for about 5 minutes.
• Once the chops are cooked and rested, add the spinach and olives to the tomatoes and toss to coat. Serve the salad on or alongside the chops and spoon out some of the tomato balsamic juice from the bottom of the salad bowl to top each chop.

GRILLED VEAL CHOPS WITH LEMON-MUSTARD-TARRAGON BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat coals in a grill until they are covered with ash (mesquite does magic with grilled meats). Season the veal chops with salt and pepper, then place on the grill and cook to desired doneness.
• While the chops are grilling, place the soft butter in a small mixing bowl. Add the other ingredients and incorporate them well with a fork. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (If making the herb butter far ahead, spoon onto a sheet of wax paper and form a log which can easily be divided later, then refrigerate.).
• When ready to serve, add a dollop of the herb butter atop each veal chop and serve immediately.

VEAL SCALLOPS WITH PARSLEY, LEMON AND GARLIC

BASIL LEMON GRILLED VEAL CHOPS
