OVEN-BROILED LAMB CHOPS WITH GRAVY



Oven-Broiled Lamb Chops with Gravy image

This oven-broiled lamb chop recipe was shared with me by a chef from a fine restaurant in Vancouver (hence the name). It can be served with a beef filet or baby lamb chops, but I believe that it complements the lamb better than any sauce that I've ever had! Be warned that these chops are very expensive but worth it. Serve with a very nice dry red wine, soft music, and candlelight! I like to serve with rosemary and garlic roasted red potatoes (mashed is good too!) and glazed carrots.

Categories     Lamb Chops

Time 4h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup dry red wine
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
4 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
4 (4 ounce) lamb chops
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix wine, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, cilantro, and ginger together in a zip-top freezer bag; add lamb chops. Seal and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler to high.
  • Remove lamb chops from the marinade and shake off excess; transfer chops to a wire rack set in a shallow pan.
  • Strain the marinade and save the liquid only. Heat the liquid in a small saucepan to the point of boiling. Stir in flour until a gravy-like consistency is reached. More or less flour can be used to create the desired thickness.
  • Broil the lamb chops until medium-rare, 4 1/4 minutes per side (4 1/2 minutes for medium). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium doneness. Pour a little of the gravy over the chops and serve.

BROILED LAMB CHOPS WITH ROSEMARY-MINT SAUCE



Broiled Lamb Chops with Rosemary-Mint Sauce image

Categories     Herb     Broil     Quick & Easy     Mint     Rosemary     Lamb Chop     Bon Appétit

Yield 2 Servings; Can be doubled

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large garlic cloves
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 4-ounce loin lamb chops
3 tablespoons mint jelly
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon dried

Steps:

  • Chop garlic cloves with salt and pepper on cutting board, then use flat side of knife blade to mash garlic mixture to paste. Scrape paste into small bowl; mix in olive oil. Rub garlic paste on both sides of lamb chops. Let lamb chops stand 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir 3 tablespoons mint jelly, 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar and rosemary in small saucepan over high heat until mint jelly melts and mixture boils. Reduce heat to medium and cook until sauce thickens to syrup, about 2 minutes.
  • Preheat broiler. Broil lamb chops until well browned but still pink inside, about 4 minutes per side. Arrange lamb chops on 2 plates. Spoon sauce over.

Tips:

  • To ensure that your lamb chops are cooked to perfection, use a meat thermometer to check their internal temperature. Lamb chops are considered medium-rare when they reach an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C) and medium when they reach 145°F (63°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also judge the doneness of your lamb chops by their color. Medium-rare lamb chops will be pink in the center, while medium lamb chops will be slightly brown in the center.
  • To prevent your lamb chops from drying out, baste them with butter or oil while they are cooking. You can also add a marinade or rub to the lamb chops before cooking to help keep them moist.
  • For the minted pears, be sure to use ripe pears that are firm but not too soft. Bosc or Anjou pears are good choices.
  • If you don't have any fresh mint, you can use dried mint instead. Just be sure to use about half the amount of dried mint as you would fresh mint.

Conclusion:

This recipe for broiled lamb chops with minted pears is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The lamb chops are cooked to perfection and the minted pears add a refreshing and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
