LAMB CHOPS WITH BALSAMIC REDUCTION



Lamb Chops with Balsamic Reduction image

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.

Provided by PGRAYMENDOZA

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Lamb     Chops

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.

Tips:

  • To ensure the lamb chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chops should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 160°F (71°C) for medium, or 170°F (77°C) for well-done.
  • To prevent the lamb chops from drying out, baste them with the honey-balsamic glaze throughout the cooking process.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the lamb chops in a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
