Weber Grill's Lemon Sage Marinated Veal Chops
~~~Marinade~~~
1 TB freshly grated lemon zest
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh sage leaves
2 TB minced shallots
2 TB whole grain mustard
1 TB minced garlic
1 TB freshly cracked black peppercorns
In a medium bowl mix the marinade ingredients.
4 (8 to 10 oz. ea.) veal rib chops, about 1-1/4" thick
1 tsp. kosher salt
Place the veal chops in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in the
marinade. Press the air out of
the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag several times to distribute the
marinade, place the bag in a bowl,
and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours, turning occasionally.
Remove the chops from the bag, allowing the excess liquid to drip off.
Discard the marinade. Season
the chops evenly on both sides with kosher salt. Let the chops stand at room
temperature for 20 to 30
minutes before grilling.
With the lid closed, sear the chops over direct high heat (450° F to 550° F)
for 2 minutes on each side.
Move the chops to indirect high heat. With the lid closed, continue to grill
until cooked to desired
doneness, 12 to 14 minutes for medium rare, turning once. Remove from the
grill and let rest for
3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.
Makes 4 servings.
