Ingredients

1 medium-size tomato, seeded and diced
1/2 tablespoon diced red onion
7 black olives, pitted and sliced into quarters
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
Pinch dried hot red chili peppers
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 large veal loin chops, 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick
1/2 bunch arugula, washed and stems removed

Steps:

Mix the tomato, onion, olives, capers, basil, chili peppers, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the vinegar together in a bowl. Add salt and pepper.
Preheat a grill or broiler. Brush the veal chops with the remaining olive oil. Place them on a hot grill or under the broiler, and cook, turning them once. For medium rare to medium, cooking time is 10 to 15 minutes.
To serve, line individual plates with a bed of arugula. Remove the chops from the grill or broiler and place on the arugula and top each with the tomato mixture. Grind black pepper over the top.
