Ingredients

Filling:

1/4 cup minced prosciutto
1/4 cup grated sharp provolone cheese
1/4 cup small diced roasted peppers
1/2 small onion, grated
2 tablespoons seasoned Italian bread crumbs
2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (1-inch thick) veal chops, frenched
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

In a medium bowl, mix all the filling ingredients together until well combined. Set aside.

Have grill preheated over high heat and oven preheated to 350 degrees F.

Slit each veal chop on its side to create a pocket. Stuff each chop with filling. Use toothpicks to keep closed. Season chops with salt and pepper and brush with oil on both sides.

Place chops on smoking hot grill and mark for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from grill and place in a baking dish. Finish cooking in oven for 4 to 6 minutes.

This was one of the easiest and most delicious recipes I have ever used. I watch for sales at the grocery. I got the chops... for $3.50 for both of them. What a fabulous meal. MMMMMMMM!!!!!Read more

This dish rocks!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I'd never cooked veal chops and was somewhat apprehensive. I tend to overcook veal and am usually comfortable only when I... prepare a veal stew or ragout. But, this recipe is so forgiving that, even though I undercooked it this time, it held up well when I had to return it the oven for "repair"! I had no Italian bread crumbs so used fresh and doctored them with an Italian seasonings blend I keep for just such occasions. Having no provolone, either, I substituted mozzarella and it worked out. Everything else was true to the guru! A California Pinot Noir paired well with this dish. Aaron, keep on rocking my taste buds! Read more

Dang! Soooo good!

My boyfriend and I made this and it was excellent. Since I have a wheat allergy we used gluten free crackers instead of the... italian bread crumbs. This is such an impressive recipe. We will definitely use this for company in the future.Read more

All I can say OMG!

After watching your Special Valentine's show with the stuffed veal chops, broccoli rabe, mashed parsnips, strawberries coated... in chocolate and pretzels, strawberry Belini... ...I set out to make it for my man on Valentines day. We've been dating for 9 months now. He told me last week he never had a nice Valentine's day. He is such a sweet man I just had to make your special meal for him. I made the dining room romantic... candles, romantic music. I had picked a few love songs on my ipod and played them when I ushered him into the dining room. The plates were covered so he couldn't see. The first song I told him was how I felt about him, and everytime I heard this song I think of him and me. As we danced, I sang it to him. He was blown away. Then.... I sat him down at the table and slowly revealed each item as i described what it was. You should have seen his eyes pop out of his head when he saw the veal chops as i described what was in them. OMG!!! We were in heaven that nite! Thx so much Big Daddy for this recipe. It was magnificent, melt in your mouth, chew the last bits of meat off the bone awesome!!!!!!!Read more

Great Veal Chops
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Thanks Aaron for this great recipe. The chops were perfect. I tend to over cook my meats, however, this time I followed... your instructions to the "T". Now that I did the test run, I'm ready to prepare this tonight (Valentine Day) for my special someone! MW Read more
