- 4 (1-inch-thick) veal loin chops

What to Do
- Process first 5 ingredients in a food processor or blender until well blended, making a marinade. Reserve 1 tablespoon marinade. Coat both sides of chops with remaining marinade, and place in a shallow dish. Cover and marinate in refrigerator 2 hours.

Notes
When buying veal chops, look for meat that's pale pink to get the best quality.
