SIMPLE ROSEMARY LAMB CHOPS



Simple Rosemary Lamb Chops image

The simplest of treatments often brings out the best of flavours. Do these in the fry pan or on a BBQ. We like our lamb chops cooked though rather than pink... and we often use more olive oil than stated because then the fat around the edge of the chops caramalises and gets lovely and crispy. Cooking time is approximate because it really depends on how rare to well done you prefer your meat and how thick your chops are. *DO* pick these up and eat them with your fingers. Guests thought we were mad but after trying them, sticky fingers all around the table were diving into the serving dish for more! I have some small hand towels that I dampen slightly and wrap well in cling film before everyone arrives. Put them in the microwave for a minute or so, hand them out to guests to clean their hands on afterwards, but be careful, there will be a lot of steam as the first bit of cling film comes off, but it's a classy cleanup and guest will be impressed :) ZWT REGION: New Zealand.

  • If you like your chops to be cooked though, turn the heat down just a little at this point so that they don't burn.
  • Drain off the excess fat and serve with the remaining rosemary sprinkled on top.

These Garlic Rosemary-Marinated Lamb Chops can be prepared in 45 minutes or less.

Categories     Garlic     Broil     Marinate     Quick & Easy     Lemon     Rosemary     Lamb Chop     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 teaspoon finely chopped lemon zest
1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary or 1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried
1 tablespoon olive oil
four 1 1/4-inch-thick loin lamb chops (about 1 pound total)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. In a small bowl stir together the zest, the garlic paste, the rosemary, the oil, and pepper to taste, rub the lamb chops with the marinade, and let them marinate on a plate for 20 minutes. Broil the lamb chops on the rack of a broiler pan about 4 inches from the heat for 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat.

Tips:

  • Select high-quality lamb chops. Look for chops that are evenly thick, with a good amount of marbling for flavor.
  • Trim excess fat from the chops, leaving a thin layer to help keep them moist during cooking.
  • Season the chops generously with salt, pepper, and rosemary. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.
  • Sear the lamb chops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are browned on the outside and medium-rare in the center. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the chops are cooked through to your desired doneness.
  • Remove the chops from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.

Conclusion:

Rosemary roast lamb chops are a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
