Blue Cheese Veal Chops and Yellow Rice

This is a recipe I've been making for a couple of years now and it is not only gourmet but very fast to make.  Definitely a must-try!

• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper
• 1/4 tsp paprika
• 4x 6oz lean veal chops, trimmed (lamb chops work as well if you can't find veal)
• Cooking spray
• Boil in bag rice
• 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
• 14 oz can quartered artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
• 1/2 c chopped green onions
• 1/4 c / 1 oz crumbled blue cheese
• 1 TB yogurt based butter spread (e.g. Brummel & Brown)

Preheat broiler.  Combine salt, pepper, paprika and sprinkle over both sides of chops. Place chops on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray.  Broil 6-7 min each side.  While chops are broiling, boil water and cook rice to package instructions.  Once rice is cooked, add in turmeric, 1/4 tsp salt, artichokes and green onions.  Combine blue cheese and yogurt spread in a small bowl, spread over chops.  Broil for 20 seconds or until cheese is melted.  Serve chops over rice.
