Veal Chops With Sherry Gastrique And Roasted Peperonata Recipes

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.

VEAL WITH SHERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter with 2 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Season veal with salt and pepper. Dredge veal in flour, shaking off excess. Add veal to skillet in batches and sauté until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Transfer veal to platter. Cover with foil and keep warm.
• Add broths, Sherry, lemon juice, garlic and Worcestershire sauce to same skillet. Bring to boil over high heat, scraping up any browned bits from skillet. Cook until sauce is reduced to 3/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Pour sauce over veal. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
