INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION NOTE: Prepare orzo according to directions on package. Fresh or
frozen spinach can be steamed in a small amount of water and
butter-flavored sprinkles added for flavor.
1. Press peppercorns into both sides of veal medallions. (They will not
completely coat the veal.) Season with salt.
2. In a large skillet, heat 1/2 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat. Add
veal and cook until golden outside and faintly pink inside, about 2 minutes
per side. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
3. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add shallot and cook,
stirring, until softened, about 1 minute. Add juice, vinegar and tomato
paste. Bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits. Cook until liquid is
reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Stir in scallions and any accumulated
juices from the veal. Season with salt.
4. Arrange veal on plates and spoon sauce over. Serve immediately.
