Followed directions—so delicious! Served with noodles which soaked up wonderful sauce.
Tasty. The butter gets very dark after cooking but makes for a very rich brown sauce. The meat was a bit over done for my taste. Perhaps remove the meat from pan sooner and reduce and finish sauce separately. Good fall/winter chop recipe.
I did not add in the extra butter and used only 1 teaspoon butter plus some oil for the initial browning of the veal. I added in a bit more broth than called for. I heated my oven to 375 and after the initial browning, I covered the pan and put in oven for about 25 minutes. I think it cooks much more evenly if finished in the oven. Cooking time will depend on thickness of the cops. I had 1 1/2 " thick chops. It was delicious.
