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 VINEGAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim the chops of any excess fat. If there is not much meat on the tail porton, cut the tails away. Otherwise attach them to the chops with toothpicks. Dry the chops.
• Heat oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chops in a single layer. Saute the chops over high heat until just seared. Remove from heat and keep warm.
• Add the vegetables to the skillet and cook, stirring, for about five minutes, until they are just tender. Stir in the vinegar, tomato paste and stock. Cook, stirring for several minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Return the chops to the skillet and baste with the sauce. Cover and cook to desired degree of doneness -about six minutes should be enough for medium.

VEAL CHOPS WITH PEPPERS

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 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, remove from 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. Spoon juices and peppers evenly over the chops and garnish with parsley.
