GRILLED VEAL CHOPS WITH LEMON-MUSTARD-TARRAGON BUTTER



Grilled Veal Chops With Lemon-Mustard-Tarragon Butter image

This is one of a series of recipes I have from a winery. They unfortunately do not put the chef on the recipe page but on the tasting notes which I did not keep. So for lack of a better source, I'll call this the VSW series. I have not tried most of them, but I want to hang on to them so I'm posting them here. Chefs notes: Grilled outdoors or broiled indoors, there's nothing like the perfect veal chop with a tart herb butter served alongside a fresh pasta and maybe some thin green beans dressed in olive oil.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 veal chops
salt and black pepper
6 ounces unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, minced
1 tablespoon fresh chives, minced
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 lemon, juice of

Steps:

  • Heat coals in a grill until they are covered with ash (mesquite does magic with grilled meats). Season the veal chops with salt and pepper, then place on the grill and cook to desired doneness.
  • While the chops are grilling, place the soft butter in a small mixing bowl. Add the other ingredients and incorporate them well with a fork. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (If making the herb butter far ahead, spoon onto a sheet of wax paper and form a log which can easily be divided later, then refrigerate.).
  • When ready to serve, add a dollop of the herb butter atop each veal chop and serve immediately.

From Williams-Sonoma. Posting for safekeeping-I have not tried but this sounds good. Timing does NOT include preparing the charcoal grill nor marinating time.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large lemons
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
4 (10 ounce) loin veal chops, cut 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut 1 of the lemons into 8 crosswise slices.
  • Grate enough zest from remaining lemon to yield 3/4 teaspoon, then squeeze 1 tablespoon juice.
  • In a small bowl, combine the lemon zest and juice, oil, and chopped tarragon.
  • Season the chops on both sides with salt and pepper, then brush with SOME of the lemon-tarragon mixture, reserving about 1 tablespoon of the mixture for the lemon slices.
  • Let the chops stand at room temperature for 15 minutes, OR cover and refrigerate for up to 3 hours. (If refrigerated, remove from refrigerator for 30 minutes before grilling.).
  • Prepare a CHARCOAL or GAS grill for DIRECT grilling over MEDIUM HIGH heat. Oil the grill rack.
  • For CHARCOAL grill: Grill the chops over the hottest part of the fire.
  • Or for GAS grill: Grill the chops, directly over the heat elements.
  • For either grill type- grill until nicely charred and cooked to your liking, 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium rare. About 3 minutes before the veal is done, brush the lemon slices with the reserved 1 tablespoon lemon-tarragon mixture. Grill the lemon slices, turning once,until lightly charred and softened, 30 to 60 seconds per side.
  • Serve the veal chops with the grilled lemon slices.
