LAMB CHOPS WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings (1/2 cup sauce)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 (6-ounce) loin lamb chops, fat trimmed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1 cup dry red wine
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
1 cup chicken broth, low-sodium canned
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dry the lamb chops well and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the oil to the pan and heat until shimmering. Lay chops in the pan and cook, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the sides of the lamb registers 125 degrees F, about 4 minutes per side. After cooking the lamb on each side, stand it up on it's edges to brown the sides as well, about 2 minutes more. Reduce the heat if needed so the browned bits remaining in the pan don't burn. Remove chops from the skillet and set aside in a warm place.
  • Pour off all but 1 1/2 tablespoons fat from the skillet. Add the garlic and cook, tilting the skillet to keep the garlic submerged in the fat, and cook until golden, about 1 minute. Add the wine and rosemary, stirring up browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and simmer over high heat until syrupy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chicken broth and cook until reduced by about half, another 5 to 6 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and briskly whisk in the butter. When the butter has incorporated, whisk in the mustard and heavy cream. Season with additional salt and pepper.
  • Serve 2 chops per person with the sauce.

ROSEMARY-AND-GARLIC LAMB CHOPS



Rosemary-and-Garlic Lamb Chops image

Braising is typically used for simmering tough meats for hours, but it works beautifully (and much more quickly!) with tender cuts, too. We paired lamb chops with rosemary and garlic for big flavor, fast.

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.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality lamb chops: Look for chops that are a deep red color with a good amount of marbling. Avoid chops that are pale or have a lot of sinew.
  • Marinate the lamb chops: Marinating the lamb chops in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple olive oil and herb marinade, a yogurt-based marinade, or a red wine marinade.
  • Cook the lamb chops over high heat: Lamb chops should be cooked over high heat to quickly sear the outside and prevent them from drying out. You can cook the lamb chops in a grill pan, a cast iron skillet, or on an outdoor grill.
  • Don't overcook the lamb chops: Lamb chops are best when they are cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooking the lamb chops will make them tough and dry.
  • Let the lamb chops rest before serving: After cooking the lamb chops, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Rosemary-rubbed lamb chops are a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your lamb chops turn out perfectly cooked and flavorful. Serve the lamb chops with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
