A different and delicious way to prepare lamb. This is from Bon Appetit and I was attracted to it because it uses lamb shoulder chops and you don't see too many recipes for those. I have prepared these indoors using a ridged grill pan with excellent results.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality lamb chops for the best results. Look for chops that are evenly marbled and have a good amount of fat.
  • Make sure to trim the lamb chops of any excess fat before cooking. This will help to prevent them from becoming greasy.
  • Season the lamb chops generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Sear the lamb chops in a hot skillet or grill until they are browned on all sides. This will help to create a flavorful crust.
  • Reduce the heat and cook the lamb chops until they reach your desired doneness. For medium-rare lamb chops, cook them for about 4 minutes per side.
  • Let the lamb chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to ensure that they are juicy and tender.
