Best Veal Scallops With Lemon And Capers Recipes

PAN SEARED SCALLOPS WITH LEMON CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium-sized bowl combine salt and hot water, stirring to dissolve the salt. Add ice water to cool the brine. Add scallops to the brine and let stand for 10 minutes. Line a sheet pan with paper towels, set aside.
• Drain the scallops, rinse under cold water, and then arrange in a single layer on the paper towel-lined sheet pan. Place another paper towel on top of the scallops and gently pat scallops. Remove as much surface moisture as possible for the best browning results when cooked.
• Allow scallops to sit for 10 minutes at room temperature before cooking.
• In a 12-inch saute pan or cast iron skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until oil ripples and just begins to smoke.
• Sprinkle scallops lightly with salt on both sides.
• Place scallops into the hot pan without crowding. Gently press scallops with a spatula to make direct contact with the pan.
• Sear scallops without moving them, continuing to cook until bottoms are a rich golden brown, 3 to 3 ½ minutes.
• Add butter to the pan. Turn the scallops over and cook the second side. Use a spoon to baste the scallops with the butter, tilting the pan to collect the butter as needed.
• When the scallops are opaque in color and firm to the touch, about 1 to 2 minutes, turn off heat and transfer to a plate, do not discard pan.
• In the same pan used for cooking the scallops turn heat to medium. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
• Increase heat to medium-high and add wine. Simmer wine, stirring as needed until the wine is reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
• Turn heat to high and add the chicken stock, lemon zest, lemon juice and capers to the pan. Cook until sauce is reduced by half, about ½ cup, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Turn off heat and whisk in Dijon mustard.
• Turn heat to medium and add scallops back to pan, cook until warm, 2 minutes.
• Taste sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed.
• Garnish scallops with chopped dill, chives and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

VEAL PICCATA WITH LEMON AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Place the veal in one tray and flour in the other.
• In a large non-stick skillet, and on medium heat, heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter until butter is melted. Toss in a few capers into the butter and oil mixture.
• Dredging Veal Cutlets: Begin by taking each piece of veal, one at a time, and placing it into the flour to coat both sides with flour. Shake off excess flour, and place it into the heated skillet with oil, butter, and capers.
• Saute the veal until golden brown around the edges, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. These will cook up quickly, so you may want to lower the heat a little while you are sauteing them in order not to overcook them.
• Then transfer the sauteed veal into a nearby dish. Cover them with a sheet of foil wrap to keep them warm.
• Continue with the rest of the veal until all of them are sauteed and done.
• NEXT, Deglaze the pan. Pour in the white wine and simmer on low heat while you stir the remaining bits on the bottom of the pan.
• RETURN all the veal back into the skillet. Add in the lemon juice, and remaining butter and stir until it's heated through. Optional: pour in the chicken broth for more flavor and additional sauce. Toss in a few more capers on top. (And, here is where you can add more butter and lemon juice to your preference).
• Cover with a lid and simmer on low heat for about 2 minutes. Turn off heat.
• Transfer the veal to a serving platter and pour the remaining warm lemon-buttery sauce over the veal, and toss a few more capers over them.
• Garnish with some lemon slices on the side and serve immediately.
