Ingredients
THE VEAL
1 cup bread crumbs
3 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
4 veal loin chops, on the bone, pounded
1 cup buttermilk
Olive oil spray
THE SALAD
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 shallots, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
5 cups mixed greens, like watercress and Boston lettuce
Preparation
- Step 1
To make the veal, preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Combine the bread crumbs, parsley, Parmesan, salt and pepper in a medium-size bowl. Dip the veal chops into the buttermilk and then coat on both sides with the crumb mixture. Spray a large cast-iron skillet with the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the veal chops, in batches if necessary, and cook until the crumbs begin to brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Place the chops on a baking sheet, as far apart as possible. Bake until the veal is just cooked through, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Step 2
Meanwhile, to make the salad, whisk together the garlic, shallots, mustard and vinegar. Whisk in the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the greens in a large bowl. Add the vinaigrette and toss to coat. Divide the veal chops and salad among 4 plates and serve immediately.
Private Notes
Comments
The veal chops were oh so tender. The chops were about 1" thick; I pounded them but didn't break them. Some of the crust stuck to the frying pan when I browned them but it didn't ultimately matter. The 15 minute bake time could have been reduced to 12
I make a salad most every night and so I don't see that this adds anything to the dish per se. I served the chops with the Italian Roast Potatoes by Nigella Lawson.
