Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Ingredients

Begin by cleaning and slicing the mushrooms into thick slices. Season the veal chops with salt and black pepper on both sides. Chop the fresh parsley and set aside for garnish.

Cooking

2

Sear the Veal Chops

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and is bubbling, add the veal chops. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside.

3

Sauté the Mushrooms

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter and the sliced mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms over medium heat for about 5-6 minutes until they are tender and have released their moisture.

4

Flambé with Cognac

Once the mushrooms are cooked, carefully add the cognac to the skillet. Use a long lighter or match to ignite the cognac. Allow the flames to subside as the alcohol burns off, which should take about 1-2 minutes.

5

Add Cream and Cook

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Mix well until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Return the veal chops to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the chops are heated through.

6

Garnish and Serve

Once cooked, transfer the veal chops to a serving plate, drizzle with the creamy mushroom sauce, and sprinkle chopped parsley on top for garnish.
