Grilled Veal Chops with Rocket and Basil Salad

Ingredients for Grilled Veal Chops with Rocket and Basil Salad

• 80ml de azeite de oliva extra-virgem

• 2 colheres de sopa de suco de limão fresco

• 3 medium tomatoes, cut into thin wedges

• 1 small red onion, halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise (1/2 cup)

• 275g baby rocket (5 cups)

• 1 cup packed basil leaves, torn into pieces

• 6 (3/4- to 1-inch-thick) bone-in rib veal chops (4 to 2.3kg

• )

• 950ml fine fresh bread crumbs (from 10 slices firm white sandwich bread)

• 160ml grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

• 240ml de azeite de oliva

Whisk together oil, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl until combined, then stir in tomatoes and onion.

Pré-aqueça o forno a 177°C com a grade no meio.

Gently pound chops (avoiding bone) to 1/8 inch thick between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with flat side of a meat pounder or with a rolling pin.

Toast bread crumbs in a large 4-sided sheet pan in oven, stirring once or twice, until dry but not golden, 7 to 10 minutes. Cool completely.

Stir crumbs together with cheese and 1/4 teaspoons each of salt and pepper in a shallow bowl or pie plate. Sprinkle chops with 1/4 teaspoons each of salt and pepper.

Line a large baking sheet with wax paper. Put oil in another shallow bowl or pie plate. Dip each chop in oil, letting excess drip off, then dredge both sides of chop (and bone) in bread-crumb mixture, pressing gently to help crumbs adhere. Transfer to baking sheet.

Prepare a grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium heat for gas).

Oil grill rack, then grill chops, covered only if using a gas grill, turning once, until just cooked through and golden brown and grill marks appear, about 8 minutes total.

Just before serving, add rocket and basil to salad and toss, then season with salt and pepper. Serve over chops.
