Copyright Recipe © 2015 Woodland Foods

Ingredients

  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil, divided

  • 2 Veal Chops, 6-8 ounces each

  • 1 Teaspoon Kosher Sea Salt Flakes

  • 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper

  • 6 Tablespoons Butter, divided

  • 1 Shallot, sliced thin

  • 1 Garlic Clove, minced

  • 2 Sliced Black Winter Truffle, cut in quarters

  • 6 Fluid Ounces Red Wine

Directions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat in skillet just large enough to hold 2 veal chops.

  2. Season chops with salt and pepper on both sides, and add to hot pan. Place 1 tablespoon butter in pan and allow meat to cook for 6 minutes before moving to develop crust. Turn chops over and add 1 additional tablespoon butter. Cook for 5 minutes and transfer meat to plate.

  3. Wipe skillet out with paper towel, and add remaining tablespoon olive oil, shallots and garlic. Cook for 1 minute, then add truffle slices.

  4. Cook for 30 seconds, and add wine. Place veal back into pan and reduce wine down to one quarter of its volume. Turn chops over and add remaining butter, stirring or swirling pan to incorporate.

  5. Serve veal immediately and pour sauce over each, dividing truffle slices evenly.
