Ingredients
- 4 pieces veal chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Pat the veal chops dry with paper towels and place them in a shallow dish or on a plate.
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, lemon zest, black pepper, kosher salt, and red pepper flakes.
Step 3
Rub the herb mixture evenly over both sides of the veal chops, ensuring they are well coated.
Step 4
Cover the veal chops with plastic wrap and let them marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes to infuse flavor. If marinating longer, refrigerate for up to 2 hours and bring to room temperature before grilling.
Step 5
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Place the veal chops on the hot grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for well-done.
Step 7
Remove the veal chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain their juices.
Step 8
Serve the grilled veal chops with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
