Veal Chops with Stilton Butter
by sgrishka
Succulent veal chops, sauteed to medium rare perfection, then dotted with Stilton butter and allowed to rest for 10 minutes. Fast, simple and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 ounce Stilton cheese ; (about 1/4 cup)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter ; room temperature
- Juice and grated zest of 1/2 lemon ; zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 tablespoon fresh flat leaf parsley ; chopped
- 1 tablespoon Canola oil
- 2 1"-thick rib veal chops ; (about 1 pound)
- Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Using a small bowl, combine Stilton cheese, butter, lemon zest, juice and parsley, season with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to a sheet of wax paper and roll into a log approximately 1-1/2 inches in diameter, refrigerate until firm.
Using a paper towel, pat chops dry, season with salt and pepper. Using a medium saute pan over medium high heat, add the oil. Add chops and cook until medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Remove Stilton butter from refrigerator and slice, top each chop with half the butter. Let chops rest for 10 minutes before serving.
NOTES
Make the Stilton butter ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 1 week.
Serve with a crisp green salad and a twice-baked potato or my favorite angel hair pasta with garlic and olive oil.
