Veal Chops With Saga Blue Butter Food

VEAL CHOPS WITH ROQUEFORT BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the butter and Roquefort cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on medium speed until smooth. Add the scallions and mix until combined. Cut a strip of parchment paper 4 1/2 inches wide and place the mixture on the short end of the paper. Roll into a log about 1 inch in diameter, rolling the parchment paper around the butter mixture. Chill.
• Sprinkle both sides of the veal chops generously with salt and pepper. Allow to sit at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. When the coals are hot, grill the chops for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until almost cooked through. Remove to a platter and cover with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 15 minutes. Serve with 1 or 2 slices of cold Roquefort butter on each chop.

PAN SEARED VEAL CHOP WITH ROSEMARY

Add chops to pan and cook until golden brown and then flip. Remove chops from pan to a baking dish and roast in 375 degrees F. oven for 10 minutes. Add wine and stock to cast iron pan and stir up brown bits from bottom. Serve chops with juice from pan.

VEAL CHOPS WITH LEMON SAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Lightly oil the chops, and season with salt and pepper. In a heavy oven-proof cast iron grill pan, sear the chops until golden brown on each side.
• Place the pan in the hot oven and cook an additional 10 minutes for medium rare.
• Sprinkle the fresh sage and fresh lemon juice over them, serve immediately with lemon pieces and sage for garnish.
• Note: You can also leave the sage leaves whole and place on the chops to be eaten with the bites.

VEAL CHOPS WITH SAGE

Steps:

• Place the veal chops in a large nonreactive pan. Whisk together 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and the lemon juice. Stir in 10 coarsely chopped sage leaves. Pour the mixture over the chops, cover and refrigerate for several hours, turning the chops occasionally.
• When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 200 degrees and place 2 large skillets over high heat. Remove the chops from the marinade and remove and discard any pieces of sage that may be clinging to them. Sprinkle each chop generously with salt and pepper. Divide the remaining 3 tablespoons oil between the pans. When the oil is very hot, place 2 chops in each pan and cook until well browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the other side is browned and the chops are cooked to the desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes, depending on their thickness. Place the chops on a platter, cover with foil and put them in the oven to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
• Pour the grease out of 1 pan and add the wine. Add 5 chopped sage leaves and place over medium heat. Cook, scraping the bottom of the pan, until the wine has reduced to about 1/4 of its original volume. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Transfer the veal chops to 4 plates and pour the sauce over them. Garnish each plate with a few whole sage leaves and serve immediately with potato galettes (see recipe) and pan-grilled scallions with sea salt (see recipe) if desired.
