Veal Gorgonzola – gluten free

veal  gorganzola (gluten free)Recipe time: 15 minutes
Quick and Easy

2 servings

This is a small adaptation of the traditional recipe (substituting rice flour for the wheat flour normally called for) If you have no need to make things gluten free – use any flour you like.

Ingredients
3 – 4 veal scallopini (4 slices of thinly pounded veal )
rice flour for dredging
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons of olive oil
¾ cup of white wine
½ cup of heavy cream (whipping cream)
½ cup of Gorgonzola cheese

Directions
Give each veal cutlet a pinch of salt and a sprinkling of freshly cracked black pepper.
Splash out some rice flour on your plate and then dredge each piece of meat in the flour, shaking off the excess.
Heat a heavy skillet over medium high and when hot, add in your olive oil and a moment later, your veal cutlets –
Frying for 2 minutes on each side (If your pan will not fit the 4 cutlets without crowding, do this in batches. The frying time is relatively quick, and the end result will be much better if you give each cutlet some space to fry, rather than steam, as it would an overcrowded pan!!!)
WARNING depending on thickness of cutlets – each side could be fried for as little as 20 seconds — do not over cook !
When the meat has cooked through, take it out of the pan and reserve.
Drain off any oil that remains in the pan and then return the pan to heat.
Immediately add in the white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up the bottom to release any and all tasty browned bits!
Let the wine come to a simmer and simmer until it is reduced by about half.
Add in the cream and the cheese and then cook until the cheese has melted into the sauce.
Turn the heat down to very low, add the meat back to the pan and let it sit very gently in the sauce for 3-5 minutes.

Veal Angelica

Elegant stuffed veal medallions made with asparagus and provolone cheese are breaded and fried, then slow cooked to a brilliant finish in a mushroom wine sauce.

Prep Time: 25 Minutes
Cook Time: 45 Minutes
Ready In: 1 Hour 40 Minutes

4 servings

Ingredients
8 (2 ounce) veal cutlets, pounded to 1/4 inch thickness 450 g total
8 (1 ounce) slices provolone cheese 225g total
8 fresh asparagus spears
4 (1/2 ounce) slices prosciutto
1 pinch salt and pepper to taste
1 pinch garlic powder to taste
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped Vidalia onion
1/2 cup sliced roasted red peppers
1 cup red wine
1 cup chicken broth

Directions
Season each veal cutlet with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. On each of four of the cutlets, place 1 slice of cheese, 2 spears of asparagus, one slice of prosciutto, and another slice of cheese on top. Top each stack with a second cutlet, folding under and pressing the edges together to make a package.

In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Place the bread crumbs on a plate. Dredge both sides of the veal packages in flour. Dip each one in the egg mixture, then coat with bread crumbs. Place on a plate, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. The skillet should be large enough to hold all four packages. Brown the veal on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Add the onion and red peppers, and cook over medium heat until they are translucent. Pour in the wine, and simmer until the alcohol has cooked away – it will no longer smell as strongly. Pour in the chicken broth, and add the mushrooms.

Place the skillet and its contents into the preheated oven, and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the veal has reached 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). The sauce should also be reduced by about half.
