PISTACHIO CRUSTED RACK OF LAMB



Pistachio Crusted Rack of Lamb image

The pistachio and mustard crust gives this lamb dish an interesting flavor and texture. Sure, rack of lamb is a little pricey, but no more so than other special occasion meats like prime rib, beef tenderloin, or goose. And, because rack of lamb is sold completely trimmed, you'll have virtually no waste.

Lamb Chops and Vegetables in Foil image

My favorite recipe. I've been making it for 40 years, and everyone seems to like it. It's fun to make and to serve. Even people who don't like or have never tried lamb like this.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

aluminum foil
6 (8 ounce) lamb shoulder chops
3 tablespoons minced garlic
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 sprigs chopped fresh rosemary
3 small zucchini, halved
6 small carrots, halved

6 tablespoons butter
6 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) package feta cheese, cut into 6 squares

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place 1 piece of heavy duty aluminum foil vertically on a work surface and 1 large piece aluminum foil horizontally on top, large enough to cover 1 lamb chop and vegetables..
  • Place 1 lamb chop in the middle of the aluminum foil and rub with 1/2 tablespoon garlic, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Repeat with remaining chops.
  • Stack zucchini, carrots, mushrooms, and onion on top of each lamb chop. Place 1 tablespoon of butter on top and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Top each with 1 square of feta cheese. Tightly seal each package by wrapping the first piece of foil around the meat and vegetables, followed by the second.

LAMB CHOPS WITH PISTACHIO SAUCE



Lamb Chops with Pistachio Sauce image

Pistachios and lamb are often paired in Greek cooking. Tomatoes, artichokes, and parsley-other common ingredients-combine to create a flavorful accompaniment.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup shelled unsalted pistachios
3/4 cup packed coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup plus 1/4 cup water
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
8 lamb loin chops (each 4 ounces and 1 inch thick)
2 pints grape or cherry tomatoes
1 can (14 ounces) artichoke hearts in water, drained, rinsed, and quartered

Steps:

  • Make sauce: In a blender, puree pistachios with 1/4 cup parsley and 1/3 cup water until smooth (add a bit more water if sauce is too thick); season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Pat-dry lamb with paper towels. Season chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Cook (in two batches, if necessary) 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to a plate, and cover loosely with aluminum foil.
  • Add tomatoes, artichokes, and remaining 1/4 cup water to skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until tomatoes begin to soften, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup parsley. Serve lamb with tomato mixture and pistachio sauce.
  • Although they are a little more expensive than other cuts, lamb loin chops are incomparably tender. Take care to cook them properly, preferably to no more than medium-rare (so they remain pink in the center).

SPICE-RUBBED LAMB CHOPS (PAN SAUTEED)



Spice-Rubbed Lamb Chops (Pan Sauteed) image

I had ripped this out of a magazine. At the top of the page it says Fit To Eat. This uses ingredients I have on hand and and it serves 2, which is 1 chop a person. I like more in my serving unless I'm on a diet! Recipe suggests a side of cauliflower roasted with ginger and mint.

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
freshly ground pepper
2 lamb chops, rib chops about 5 1/2 oz. each
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 ounce arugula, about 2 cups

Steps:

  • Stir together the thyme, cumin, coriander, paprika, and salt in a small bowl; season with pepper.
  • Put lamb on a plate and rub each side with the spice mixture; let stand from 10 minutes to an hour.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon of the oil in a medium heavy skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
  • Add chops and reduce heat to medium.
  • Cook chops, flipping halfway through, until deeply browned, about 10 minutes for medium-rare.
  • Transfer each chop to a serving plate.
  • Divide arugula between plates and drizzle with the remaining teaspoons of oil.

Tips:

  • To ensure the lamb chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The ideal temperature for medium-rare lamb chops is 145°F (63°C).
  • If you don't have pistachio nuts, you can substitute them with pine nuts or almonds.
  • For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken stock instead of water in the vegetable sauté.
  • If you want a crispier crust on the lamb chops, sear them in a hot skillet for a few minutes before baking them in the oven.
  • Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This recipe for lamb chops with pistachio sauce and vegetable sauté is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion.
