Easy Italian Veal Chops
Easy Italian Veal Chops are first browned in a skillet with olive oil, garlic and fresh herbs and then finished off in the oven creating a flavorful meal. Top your veal with mozzarella cheese and serve over your favorite pasta with sauce.
Ingredients
For the veal chops – 4 veal loin chops, about 2 pounds total – 5 Tablespoons olive oil, divided – 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped – 1 Tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped – 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped – 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped – 3 Tablespoons Italian parsley – 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper {optional} – Salt and pepper For serving – Fresh Italian parsley – Pasta – Tomato sauce – Shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese
These veal chops are super easy to make and are bursting with flavor.
Similar to veal parmesan I paired the veal chops with a topping of cheese {as much as you like and you can easily add it at the end of cooking to help melt the cheese} and a side of my favorite pasta with sauce.
IS VEAL HEALTHY FOR ME? It is rich in nutrients, especially protein, zinc, niacin, vitamins B-12 and B-6. Veal is extremely lean, with a 3 oz. serving only containing an average of 5.6 grams of fat and 160 calories. That means that a 3 oz. serving is not only lean but packs a lot of nutrients
