Tips:
- For the perfect caramelized onions, slice them thinly and cook them low and slow in a mixture of butter and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, and add a touch of balsamic vinegar for a richer flavor.
- To ensure that the veal chops are cooked evenly, pound them to an even thickness before searing them in a hot skillet. This will help them cook through quickly and evenly.
- When making the Stilton sauce, use a good quality Stilton cheese for the best flavor. Crumble the cheese into the cream mixture and stir until melted and smooth.
- Serve the veal chops immediately after they are cooked, topped with the caramelized onions and Stilton sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
