LAMB SHOULDER CHOPS WITH RED WINE



Lamb Shoulder Chops with Red Wine image

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 7h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 (8 to 12-ounce) lamb shoulder blade chops
16 ounces red wine blend, plus 1 tablespoon (recommended: Syrah, Grenache or Mourvedre)
4 large sprigs fresh rosemary, plus 1 teaspoon chopped leaves
3 ounces dried plums, finely chopped
3 ounces dried apricots, finely chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and cut into several small pieces
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put a 10-inch straight-sided saute pan over medium heat for 5 minutes. Toss the lamb with the vegetable oil in a medium mixing bowl. When the pan is hot, sear the lamb for 1 minute on each side. Remove to a plate and cool for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the meat to a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag, then pour in the 16 ounces of wine and 4 rosemary sprigs. Remove as much air as possible so that the wine is completely surrounding the meat. Put the bag in a container to prevent leaks and refrigerate for 3 hours.
  • Heat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Transfer the contents of the bag back to the 10-inch straight-sided saute pan and cover. Put the pan on the middle rack of the oven and braise until the meat is tender and falling away from the bone, about 3 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the meat from the oven to a platter. Discard the rosemary. Cover the meat with aluminum foil to keep warm while finishing the sauce.
  • Pour the pan juices into a gravy separator and allow it to separate before pouring 2 cups of the liquid back into the pan. Set the pan over medium-low heat and add the dried plums and apricots. Simmer, whisking frequently, until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Whisk in the butter 1 piece at a time, adding another piece only after the previous piece has melted. Whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon of wine and the remaining chopped rosemary and continue to cook for another minute. Taste and adjust seasoning by adding salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Pour the sauce over the meat and serve immediately.

LAMB CHOPS WITH RED WINE AND ROSEMARY SAUCE



Lamb Chops With Red Wine and Rosemary Sauce image

This recipe for this dish is one that I received a while back, in one of my cooking classes on American Bistro. I have since changed and added some ingredients to suit my taste. It is a lovely dish, that is fairly quick, easy to make and very tasty. Most ingredients are ones you may have on hand. The sauce is a lovely compliment to the lamb. Served with a side of wild rice and a green salad or veggie, it is a perfect dinner.

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH RED WINE, GARLIC AND HONEY GLAZE



Grilled Lamb Chops with Red Wine, Garlic and Honey Glaze image

Categories     Garlic     Lamb     Red Wine     Summer     Honey     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
8 1- to 1 1/4-inch-thick loin lamb chops (about 2 1/2 pounds total), fat well trimmed
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Mix first 7 ingredients in large glass baking dish. Arrange lamb chops in single layer in dish; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, turning and basting often.

Grill lamb to desired doneness, turning and basting with marinade often, about 10 minutes for medium-rare.
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Transfer lamb to plate. Mix honey into marinade. Grill lamb to desired doneness, turning and basting with marinade often, about 10 minutes for medium-rare.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are evenly marbled and have a bright red color. Avoid chops that are excessively fatty or have a dull color.
  • Marinate the lamb chops: Marinating the chops in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and liquids helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. Common ingredients used in lamb chop marinades include olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, and lemon juice.
  • Cook the lamb chops over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chops while keeping the inside juicy and tender. Cook the chops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Let the lamb chops rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.

Conclusion:

Lamb chops are a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be prepared in a variety of ways. With the right preparation and cooking methods, lamb chops can be enjoyed as a flavorful and satisfying meal. Whether you prefer them grilled, pan-fried, or roasted, lamb chops are sure to impress your taste buds. So next time you're looking for a special meal, give lamb chops a try!
