Base recipe = 1 serving.
454 g veal chop (bone-in)
20 ml extra-virgin olive oil
20 g unsalted butter
40 g veal demi-glace
100 ml Chablis white wine
120 g baby carrots
120 g broccoli florets
200 g Idaho potatoes (large dice)
2 g fresh rosemary
3 g sea salt
1 g black pepper
Method
Pre-steam the vegetables and roast the diced potatoes until golden and lightly crisp on the edges.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a heavy sauté pan and sear the veal chop over medium-high heat, basting continuously for even color and flavor.
Transfer to a 300°F oven and finish cooking gently, turning once and deglazing the pan with Chablis white wine.
Rest the veal chop before slicing so the juices redistribute properly.
Reduce the pan juices with the veal demi-glace until glossy and well-balanced.
Plate the sauce underneath, arrange the sliced veal chop on top, and finish with the roasted vegetables and potatoes alongside.
Chef’s Note: A veal chop responds best to controlled heat, steady basting, and a sauce that supports the meat rather than dominating it. Let the chop rest well before slicing for the cleanest presentation.
