Ingredients
- 100ml extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large shallot, diced
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 4 rashers streaky bacon, diced
- 200g frozen peas
- 4 artichoke hearts in olive oil, sliced
- 2 sprigs thyme, leaves picked
- 4 veal loin chops
Method
- STEP 1
Heat the oven to 200c/fan 180c/gas 6. Heat the olive oil over a low heat, add the shallots and garlic and simmer very gently for 10 minutes, then add the bacon and cook for 5 minutes. Drain off the oil and keep to use on the chops, add the peas and cook for a few minutes then stir in the artichokes and thyme and season. Keep warm.
- STEP 2
Heat a griddle pan (chargrill), rub the veal chops with the saved oil and season well.
- STEP 3
Griddle the chops for 2 or 3 minutes on each side and give them plenty of colour – they work well when a little charred. Season, then either continue to griddle or transfer to the oven for the last 5 minutes to finish cooking. Rest under foil for 5 minutes before serving.
