Steps:
- In a bowl combine the tomatoes, basil, parsley, red onion, salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar and about 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. Allow the tomatoes to sit for 10 minutes so that the salt will leach out the juice of the tomatoes.
- Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium high-high heat. Drizzle 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball it, on a plate. Place chops on plate and turn in extra-virgin olive oil using tongs and season both sides liberally with salt and pepper. Once the grill pan or grill is screaming hot, add the chops and cook on the first side for 5 minutes. Resist the temptation to move the chops around, you want nice grill markings and a good crust on them. Before flipping the chops, reduce the heat to medium or move chops a little off to the side on an outdoor grill for more indirect heat. Flip and cook them on the second side for 7 to 8 minutes, remove the chops and let them rest covered with a tented piece of aluminum foil for about 5 minutes.
- Once the chops are cooked and rested, add the spinach and olives to the tomatoes and toss to coat. Serve the salad on or alongside the chops and spoon out some of the tomato balsamic juice from the bottom of the salad bowl to top each chop.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
- Pour boiling water over morels in a small bowl and soak until morels are softened, about 30 minutes. Transfer morels with a slotted spoon to a medium-mesh sieve set over a bowl. Press on morels with back of spoon to remove excess liquid (be careful not to squeeze out all the moisture), then add to soaking liquid and reserve. Rinse morels to remove any grit. Reserve morels and liquid separately, allowing liquid to settle.
- While morels soak, let veal chops stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
- Pat chops dry and season with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper (total). Heat an ovenproof 12-inch heavy skillet (not nonstick) over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil and heat until smoking, then add veal chops and sear underside well, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn chops over and sear 1 minute.
- Add butter, garlic, and thyme to skillet and baste veal with melting butter. Transfer skillet to oven and cook, basting every few minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center of chop registers 130 to 135°F for medium-rare, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Transfer chops to a plate to rest. Discard garlic and thyme, keeping juices and fat in skillet, and return to burner over medium-high heat. (Handle will be very hot.) Add morels and sauté 1 minute. Add shallot and sauté 1 minute.
- Remove from heat briefly and add Cognac, then return to heat and deglaze, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until most of liquid has evaporated. Slowly pour in reserved soaking liquid, being careful to leave last tablespoon (containing sediment) in bowl. Add meat juices from plate and boil until liquid has reduced to about 1/3 cup.
- Stir in crème fraîche, swirling to incorporate, and boil until morels are lightly coated and liquid is slightly thickened. Stir in chives and tarragon and season with salt and pepper. Serve chops smothered with morels.

Steps:
- Trim stems from the watercress and discard them. Set a few leaves aside for garnishing. Wash watercress leaves and spin them dry.
- Dry veal chops with paper towels. Melt butter in a skillet large enough to hold two chops comfortably and brown them on both sides without burning them. Remove them and set them aside. Keep warm.
- Soften the shallot in the butter and add a couple of tablespoons of water, the watercress leaves and the creme fraiche. Bring the mixture to a boil, scraping up the cooking juices, and return the chops to the pan with the lemon juice. Cover and simmer gently until the chops are cooked to the desired doneness. Season them with salt and pepper.
- Garnish the chops with the remaining watercress leaves and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality veal chops that are at least 1 inch thick.
- Make sure the sorrel sauce is well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
