This recipe for lamb chops is a favorite in my house. It is an easy and quick recipe for two people (we eat two chops each). Rosemary and thyme give it great flavor. If you double the recipe, remember that the sauce will take longer to reduce.

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

¾ teaspoon dried rosemary
¼ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried thyme
salt and pepper to taste
4 lamb chops (3/4 inch thick)
1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ cup minced shallots
⅓ cup aged balsamic vinegar
¾ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • In a small bowl or cup, mix together the rosemary, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Rub this mixture onto the lamb chops on both sides. Place them on a plate, cover and set aside for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place lamb chops in the skillet, and cook for about 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium rare, or continue to cook to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet, and keep warm on a serving platter.
  • Add shallots to the skillet, and cook for a few minutes, just until browned. Stir in vinegar, scraping any bits of lamb from the bottom of the skillet, then stir in the chicken broth. Continue to cook and stir over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has reduced by half. If you don't, the sauce will be runny and not good. Remove from heat, and stir in the butter. Pour over the lamb chops, and serve.

1 tablespoon sea salt
2 tablespoons freshly chopped oregano leaves
2 racks lamb rib chops, frenched
3/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon freshly chopped cilantro leaves

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are evenly marbled with fat and have a pinkish-red color.
  • Marinate the lamb chops: Marinating helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple mixture of olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and lemon juice works well.
  • Cook the lamb chops over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside juicy and tender. You can cook the lamb chops in a skillet, on a grill, or under a broiler.
  • Don't overcook the lamb chops: Lamb chops are best when they are cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooking will make the meat tough and dry.
  • Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides: Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad are all good options.
