Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (bone-in, about 1-inch thick) Veal chops
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 teaspoons (chopped) Fresh thyme
- 3 tablespoons (divided) Butter
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic cloves
- 1 cup Madeira wine
- 1 cup Beef stock
- 6 medium (peeled and quartered lengthwise) Parsnips
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the veal chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the veal chops for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and add the minced garlic, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze the skillet with the Madeira wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the beef stock and the remaining 1 teaspoon of thyme. Let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes to reduce slightly.
Return the veal chops to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 15-20 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
While the veal chops are roasting, toss the parsnips with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of melted butter, honey, salt, and pepper.
Spread the parsnips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast alongside the veal for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender.
Once the veal chops are done, transfer them to a plate and cover with foil to rest for 5 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the oven and return it to the stovetop over medium heat. Whisk in the last tablespoon of butter into the sauce for a glossy finish.
To serve, place the veal chops on plates alongside the roasted parsnips. Drizzle the Madeira sauce over the veal chops and garnish with fresh parsley.
