Answer 1

Here is a great recipe!
Lamb chops with balsamic reduction

* 3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
* 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
* 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
* salt and pepper to taste
* 4 lamb chops (3/4 inch thick)
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/4 cup minced shallots
* 1/3 cup aged balsamic vinegar
* 3/4 cup chicken broth
* 1 tablespoon butter

1. In a small bowl or cup, mix together the rosemary, basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Rub this mixture onto the lamb chops on both sides. Place them on a plate, cover and set aside for 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place lamb chops in the skillet, and cook for about 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium rare, or continue to cook to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet, and keep warm on a serving platter.
3. Add shallots to the skillet, and cook for a few minutes, just until browned. Stir in vinegar, scraping any bits of lamb from the bottom of the skillet, then stir in the chicken broth. Continue to cook and stir over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, until the sauce has reduced by half. If you don't, the sauce will be runny and not good. Remove from heat, and stir in the butter. Pour over the lamb chops, and serve.

Answer 6

LAMB CHOPS WITH LEMON

This dish has a classic simplicity, and its preparation is similarly streamlined. Just brown lemon-and-thyme-seasoned lamb chops quickly, then serve drizzled with a lemony reduction of its own cooking juices. If you enjoy wine with such a main dish, try a fruity young Beaujolais, lightly chilled. Preparation time: 5 minutes. Chilling time: 1/2 to 1 hour. Cooking time: 8 to 10 minutes.

FOR 4 SERVINGS YOU WILL NEED:

4 to 6 blade bone lamb chops, about 1/2 inch thick
3 tbsp. lemon juice
White pepper
1 tsp. dried thyme leaves
1 1/2 tbsp. butter
1/2 tbsp. salad oil
Salt
Lemon wedges for garnish

1. Trim excess fat from lamb chops, if necessary. Place in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice. Sprinkle lightly with white pepper, then evenly with thyme. Refrigerate to blend flavors for 1/2 to 1 hour.
2. In mixture of heated butter and oil in a large heavy frying pan, cook lamb chops over moderately high heat until well browned on both sides (3 to 4 minutes per side). Salt to taste. Remove chops to a warm platter.

3. Pour off and discard fat in pan. Add remaining lemon juice to pan, stirring to dissolve brown drippings. Drizzle mixture over chops. Garnish with lemon wedges. Good served with: Mashed potatoes or rice pilaf, and sliced fresh tomatoes.

FOR 2 SERVINGS: Half of the ingredients. FOR 8 SERVINGS: Double the ingredients.

Answer 7

My in demand way of cooking lamb chops in baked with slices of tomato & onion, salt & pepper and a few chopped cloves of garlic, drizzled with a small volume of olive oil. I many times use fore quarter chops as they are extra meaty, are marbled with purely a sprint fat and bake quite properly. I disguise the chops with foil for about 20mins n then uncovered for about 15mins. one hundred eighty'C.

Answer 8

my personel fave way is sprinkle with rosemary , and some sun dried tomatoes in oil, put on grill indoor one or out and cook till desired doneness, when done sprinkle on a little feta cheese and serve with a salad , and a good glass of wine maybe a baked potato on the side.
