BREADED LAMB CUTLETS



Breaded Lamb Cutlets image

This central European dish brings the breading technique to lamb, a meat with enough flavor and tenderness to taste great underneath a crunchy exterior. While cuts of meat from the loin or leg can be used, the medallions of meat from the rack are far superior in texture. It's not unusual to finish the dish with a sprinkle of white wine sauce, but you can skip that and simply squeeze some lemon juice over the lamb; that's what I usually do.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Twelve 1-inch-thick medallions of lamb, cut from 2 boneless racks (about 1 1/2 pounds) or the equivalent amount from the loin or leg
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
2 eggs, lightly beaten
Bread crumbs for dredging, preferably fresh (page 580), or panko (Japanese bread crumbs, page 8)
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 cup dry white wine
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish, optional
2 lemons, cut into wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°F. If using medallions from racks, press to a 1/2-inch thickness with the palm of your hand. If using cuts from the loin or leg, place the meat between sheets of wax paper and pound to a 1/2-inch thickness with a mallet or rolling pin. Place a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil, cumin, thyme, and garlic.
  • When the oil shimmers, remove the garlic and discard. Dip the lamb pieces into the egg, press into the bread crumbs on both sides, and add to the skillet. Do not crowd-you will have to cook in batches. When the meat is in the skillet, season it with salt and pepper and sprinkle it with a pinch of cumin.
  • Brown one side, then flip and brown the other; adjust the heat so that each side takes about 2 minutes. The meat should remain rare. Remove the pieces, drain, and then transfer to a warm platter in the oven. When all the pieces are done, drain the oil from the pan, leaving the browned bits, and then add the wine to the pan. Allow the mixture to simmer until it reduces by half, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Garnish the lamb with the parsley if you like and serve it alongside the wine sauce and lemon wedges.

Provided by The Flying Chef

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 lamb cutlets
1 cup panko breadcrumbs, flakes (Japanese breadcrumbs you can use regular crumbs. I just love these as they come out more crisp than )
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped fine
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped fine
2 eggs, beaten lightly
flour
olive oil

Steps:

  • Trim off any excess fat from each cutlet, flatten slightly with a meat mallet.
  • Combine breadcrumbs, parsley, basil and cheese. Coat cutlets in flour dip into egg then coat completely in breadcrumb mixture.
  • Lay cutlets flat on a tray or plate in a single layer, place in refrigerator for 10 Min's this makes them easier to handle.
  • Heat a couple of tablespoons of oil in fry pan add lamb ( you may need to use a couple of pans) Cook until browned on both sides turn the heat down and continue cooking until cooked as desired, turning occasionally, I do this instead of finishing in the oven as the coating tends to lose its crispiness.
  • I have allowed for three cutlets per person so make 16 if you want four per person.
  • Serve with mash, roasted or boiled potato and vegetable.

600g boneless lamb steaks

1 cucumber
200ml low fat natural yogurt
4plain naan bread

  • Pour the remaining yogurt over the lamb and mix well. Lay the lamb on the barbecue grid and cook for 5 minutes - the underneath should look quite dark as the yogurt cooks. Turn the lamb over and cook for a further 5 minutes, then place on a board and leave to rest while you heat the naan on the barbecue. Slice the lamb into pencil-thick strips, then cut the naan in half. Spoon in the cucumber sauce and top with the lamb and its juices.
