Grilled Prosciutto Wrapped Veal Recipes

VEAL ESCALOPES WRAPPED WITH PROSCIUTTO, SAGE & LEMON (SALTIMBOCCA)

Steps:

• Bash out the escalopes until they are about 5mm thick. Place a sage leaf on each one, wrap with the prosciutto, then press another sage leaf on top and flatten out with your hand. Dust lightly with the seasoned flour.
• Heat the oil and the butter in a large frying pan until foaming, and fry the veal for 4-5 mins on each side until the prosciutto is crisp, then remove from the pan. Add the Marsala wine to the pan and sizzle to make a sauce, scraping any tasty bits off the bottom. Add the lemon juice to taste. Put the veal back in the pan to heat through, then serve with a green salad and some fried potatoes or crusty bread.

GRILLED AND STUFFED VEAL CHOP

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high.
• Cut a pocket in the veal chops and stuff with 1 thick slice of Fontina cheese and one thin slice of Prosciutto. Seal with a toothpick. Season the chops with the garlic pepper and salt. Place on the hot grill and sear, about 3 to 4 minutes. Rotate once in between to achieve grill marks. Then flip the chops and do the same on the other side.
• Remove from direct heat and put chops on the shelf of the barbecue. Baste with steak sauce and close lid. After about 5 minutes flip and baste the other side. Close lid for 4 or 5 minutes, or until the chops are fully cooked, when the internal temperature is 140 degrees F. Let rest for 3 to 5 minutes in a warm spot. Then serve immediately.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED MELON

Steps:

• Skewer melon wedges; wrap each with a slice of cured meat; and grill, flipping once, 1 to 2 minutes. Spritz with lime juice; serve.

VEAL ROLLS STUFFED WITH PROSCIUTTO AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Put the slices of veal between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a flat mallet without breaking the tissues. Set aside. Combine the prosciutto and pork in a mixing bowl. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small skillet and cook the onion, stirring, until it is wilted. Add this to the mixing bowl. Add the garlic, bread crumbs, nutmeg, pepper, lemon rind, egg and cheese. Blend well. Lay out the pieces of veal on a flat surface. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon an equal portion of the filling on each slice. Wrap the meat around the filling, folding and tucking the ends in envelope fashion. Tie each roll neatly in 2 places with string. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge the rolls all over in flour and shake off any excess. Select a heavy skillet large enough to hold the rolls in 1layer without crowding them. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and, when it is quite hot but not browned, add the veal rolls. Cook, turning occasionally, until the are nicely browned all over, 3 or 4 minutes. Reduce the heat and continue cooking over moderately low heat for about 15 minutes. Add the wine and stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan. Add the chicken broth. Bring to the boil and let cook over high heat for about 5 minutes. Remove the strings and serve the veal rolls with the sauce spooned over.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED VEAL

Steps:

• Marinade.
• Combine marinade ingredients in blender, pour in oil as blending and puree until smooth. In a large sealable bag, add marinade and veal. Refrigerate 12-24 hours.
• Veal.
• Remove veal from marinade, lay flat and pat dry. Place the veal on a large piece of plastic wrap, cover with another piece of plastic wrap. Lightly tenderize the veal.
• On a large piece of plastic wrap place slices of proscuitto. Place the unwrapped piece of veal in centre of proscuitto, drizzle with oil and season with pepper. While lifting the plastic wrap gently, encase the veal. Wrap again tightly with more plastic and let it set up in the fridge for 15 minutes.
• Bring veal to room temperature before grilling. Remove the plastic wrap.
• Place a drip pan under the grill rack and add rosemary and white wine. Prepare grill for indirect heat by heating only one side of the grill to high and close lid.
• Preheat grill to 350ºF/175ºC.
• Place veal on the grill side with no direct heat and grill for one hour, until the internal temperature reads 150ºF on a meat thermometer. Remove from grill and cover with foil. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED FIGS STUFFED WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the grill and brush with a grill brush to remove any excess crud and fat. After brushing, run an oiled towel over the grates to pick up any loosened crud or soot.
• Drizzle each fig half with vinegar and fill each fig center with goat cheese. Sprinkle a couple flakes of crushed red pepper, if using, on top of the goat cheese and wrap each fig with a slice of prosciutto. Paint the outside of each fig very lightly with olive oil.
• Put the figs on a cooler spot of the preheated grill. The idea here is that we want to grill the figs gently to cook the fig all the way through but to still get the char on the outside. Grill the figs on all sides so the prosciutto is starting to become crispy and the fig feels soft when squeezed, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• While the figs are grilling, in a large bowl, toss the arugula with a little extra-virgin olive oil, some balsamic vinegar and the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Taste, and add salt, if needed. Arrange on individual serving plates or a serving platter and top with the figs. Drizzle a couple of drops of balsamic on each fig and serve.
• Its figgy delicious!

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED PEACHES WITH BURRATA AND BASIL

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Cut peaches in half and remove peach stones. Cut each half in half again.
• Wrap prosciutto around each peach section; secure with small bamboo skewers.
• Grill peaches, turning often, until prosciutto gets a little crisp around the edges and the peaches begin to caramelize, about 6 minutes.
• To serve, spoon burrata onto serving plates. Remove peaches from skewers; place several of the grilled peaches around the cheese. Drizzle with olive oil. Top with a sprinkle of sea salt and pepper; garnish with basil.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Rinse the scallops and then pat them dry with a paper towel.
• Drizzle olive oil on one side of scallops.
• Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and some fresh lemon juice.
• Turn scallops over and repeat step 3.
• Fold slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise and wrap around the each scallop.
• Secure with a wooden skewer.
• Place on grill set to high heat.
• Cook on each side for about 4-5 minutes.

VEAL WITH PROSCIUTTO AND SAGE

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped shallots, sage, thyme and bay leaf and sautée 2 minutes. Add dry white wine and both stocks and boil until mixture is reduced to a cup, about 20 minutes. Add whipping cream and boil until reduced to sauce consistency, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Sauce can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Pound each veal chop between sheets of waxed paper to 1/2-inch thickness. Sprinkle veal with salt and pepper. Dredge veal in flour; shake off excess. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in heavy large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add veal to skillet and sauté until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Wrap 1 prosciutto slice around center of each piece of veal. Arrange 2 veal pieces on each plate. Strain sauce, if desired. Bring sauce to simmer. Pour around veal and serve immediately.
